What every side reports

A major sell-off in technology stocks occurred following the U.S. election, tied to concerns about the artificial intelligence industry.

Where the framing diverges

The left-leaning source (CBS News) describes the sell-off in general terms, attributing it to unspecified concerns about the future of AI, without linking it to a specific political outcome. The center-leaning source (BBC News) is more specific, attributing investor fears to the Democratic Party's election victory, framing it as a reaction to expectations of slower AI development and potential regulation, and it also notes that AI stocks later recovered after the initial trillions in losses. No right-leaning coverage was provided for comparison.
