What the coverage shows

Both outlets center the same ProPublica report about an FBI investigation into whether Lindsey Graham and James Clyburn were tied to a bribery scheme connected to Navatek contracts. The Hill’s framing is straightforward and report-led, while ProPublica’s headline foregrounds Trump’s FBI purge and says it “saved” the two lawmakers from an investigation, a detail not echoed in The Hill’s version.
