What the coverage shows

All three outlets frame the story around Madrid protests tied to Spain’s housing crisis and the eviction of an 87-year-old woman. NBC News foregrounds the eviction itself and says police carried it out despite hundreds protesting outside and government criticism, while Sky News leads with a protest march and uniquely describes it as involving tens of thousands. Al Jazeera is the only one to name the woman, Maricarmen Abascal, and says protesters were demanding answers after her eviction.
