What every side reports

Karoline Leavitt is departing her position as White House press secretary, with her last day being Friday.

Where the framing diverges

The two outlets emphasize different aspects of the same personnel change. The left-leaning report (CBS News) centers on the unresolved question of who will succeed Leavitt, citing administration sources. The right-leaning report (The Daily Wire) centers on tributes to Leavitt's tenure, highlighting praise from colleagues and framing her departure as a moment of recognition for her service and loyalty, without addressing the succession question.
