Protests over living costs, inequality and failing schools spread across France on Saturday. Police fired tear gas and made dozens of arrests in several cities.
Why it matters: The movement began last month at high schools in northern Paris over teacher absences and run-down buildings. It has grown into a national protest against inequality and weak public spending.
Where they split: Coverage divides over whether the main story is a broad grievance movement and police force against protesters, or rioting and Macron's attendance at a Celine Dion concert the night before.
Center coverage, 38 sources: The center sees a country bracing for mass rallies rooted in prices, inequality and schools.
Left coverage, 26 sources: The left sees a cost-of-living revolt meeting heavy policing, echoing the 2018 Yellow Vests.
Right coverage, 51 sources: The right sees riots and chaos while Macron danced at a concert the night before.
What’s next: Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said stun grenades, suspended for student protests, could be used Saturday. Police banned rallies near the Elysee, the prime minister's office and the Champs-Elysees.
