What the coverage shows
All four outlets lead on the same basic frame, a North Korean ballistic missile launch described through South Korean or Japanese reporting and placed against rising tensions with Seoul. France 24 and The Guardian US make the Seoul apology demand part of the headline, while Al Jazeera and Sky News keep that context out of the headline and only in the broader framing. The Guardian US is the only one to mention Kim Jong-un’s sister in the extract.
