Unbiased summary
Leanne Gregory, a 36-year-old British woman from Stapleford, Nottinghamshire, died on Tuesday after being swept away by a strong current while snorkelling with her husband and two sons near North Bimini in the Bahamas. The Royal Bahamas Police Force reported that both children were swept away by the current, and Gregory was also swept away while attempting to rescue them. The children were rescued, but Gregory was brought to a ferry dock where CPR was administered before being taken to a local clinic, where she was pronounced dead. Police do not suspect foul play and an autopsy will determine the exact cause of death. Her husband, Nathan Gregory, paid tribute to her as a 'hero' and said she held one of their sons until he was rescued but lacked the energy to save herself.

Angle
The Guardian provides a straightforward factual account of the incident with contextual details about the location, avoiding emotional emphasis or the husband's tribute.
Bias
The Guardian focuses on police statements and official information, and includes contextual details about Bimini's geography and attractions. It omits the husband's emotional tribute and the family's fundraising page, which were central to other outlets' coverage, but does not distort the facts. Its coverage is largely neutral and fact-based, with minimal deviation from the objective account.
Angle
The BBC leads with the husband's emotional tribute, framing the story as a personal tragedy centered on the family's grief and the mother's heroism.
Bias
The BBC emphasizes the husband's quotes, the fundraising page, and the narrative of heroism, while downplaying the official police investigation details relative to other outlets. It includes more personal and emotional content than the objective facts require, though it does not omit key factual elements. The framing shifts focus from the incident itself to the family's response.
Angle
The Independent balances the husband's emotional tribute with official police information, presenting a sympathetic but relatively measured account.
Bias
The Independent includes the husband's quotes and details from the GoFundMe page, emphasizing the personal loss, but also incorporates police statements and the investigation. It does not sensationalize and maintains a factual tone, though it leans toward the emotional narrative. Its coverage is largely consistent with the objective facts, with mild emphasis on the family's perspective.
