What the coverage shows

The coverage mostly converges on repeated Houthi strikes on Saudi airports and other infrastructure, with several outlets stressing escalation and the limits of Saudi defenses. CBS, NBC, BBC, PBS, and The Independent frame the story around widening conflict and vulnerability, while The Guardian and South China Morning Post are among the few to add later Saudi responses and counterstrikes. Only CBS’s late-night item explicitly foregrounds Trump considering U.S. strikes against the Houthis, and The Economist mentions the conflict only in passing in a podcast lineup.
