What every side reports

The DEA has joined the investigation into the death of Hayden Panettiere, working alongside local police (identified as Greenville police), and officials have not yet finalized the cause and manner of death.

Where the framing diverges

The center outlet describes the DEA's involvement in neutral, procedural terms, emphasizing that officials are still awaiting determination of cause and manner of death. The right outlet frames the development as an escalation of the case, explicitly stating the death was an 'apparent overdose' and highlighting federal ('Feds') involvement, which adds a sense of urgency or seriousness not present in the center's framing.
