Villena + Vienna heists: how each outlet framed it, in one place

The GONOM post on the two heists is worth a reread because the framing really splits. Quick version:

The Guardian treated both raids as part of a European trend and quoted Europol on a shift toward violent and forceful methods. Al Jazeera, running AFP, focused on the speed of the Villena job and the possible decoy alarm. The National went for suspect descriptions and the necklace, calling it Vienna's highest-value art theft since the Saliera in 2003. Egyptian Streets told it through Queen Nazli and the royal history.

Same day, same crimes, four different stories. Teacher brain says: read at least two.
