The California Post’s two pieces foreground graphic details, describing “bleeding from the head” and noting that Shanahan was “this close” to losing an eye, while Fox News frames the incident through NFL analyst Chris Simms, calling the crash “horrible” and emphasizing the potential loss of Shanahan’s right eye. All three outlets are right‑leaning; no left‑ or centrist sources appear in the cluster.
