27.12.2025 โข The Day of the Kyiv Power Outages
โจMorning coverage focused on a massive Russian aerial assault on Kyiv, with editors highlighting the scrambling of Polish jets and the resulting power outages for half a million residents. This escalation was framed as Putinโs strategic response to President Zelenskyyโs upcoming Florida summit with President Trump. Media attention shifted toward the diplomatic stakes as Zelenskyy moved from Canada toward the U.S., signaling a potential 60-day ceasefire proposal.
By early afternoon, editorial priority transitioned to the star-studded wedding of Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay. Tabloids focused on internal family fractures, specifically the exclusion of Peatyโs parents and a reported scuffle involving Gordon Ramsay. Broadsheets simultaneously tracked political pressure on Keir Starmer regarding the EU customs union. By evening, the narrative remained split between Zelenskyyโs arrival in the U.S. for peace talks and the domestic spectacle of the Ramsay-Peaty family feud, which dominated tabloid digital real estate.
