The framing differs, with left-leaning sources providing more detail on the humanitarian aspects, whereas center outlets maintain a straightforward reporting style.

Notably, no outlet has addressed the potential causes of the fire or the building's safety regulations, which could provide important context regarding the incident. This omission may reflect a blind spot in the coverage, particularly among the center and left-leaning sources.

How to read these numbers
Article count is not confirmation count. Wire rewrites and same-outlet follow-ups inflate totals. Prefer distinct publishers and primary links on each story page.
