What the coverage shows

All three outlets frame the story as Trump welcoming Xi with unusually ceremonial treatment, with Reuters and BBC explicitly using live coverage language. BBC alone adds the “historic summit” framing and says AI, trade and Taiwan are expected on the agenda, while CBS alone says it is not clear what specific goals Trump wants to accomplish in the meeting.
