The ‘Smoke’ tag encompasses a diverse range of reporting from our global partners, including Deutsche Welle, France 24, the Financial Times, Bloomberg, the BBC, CNA, 60 Minutes, and the WSJ. This category tracks breaking news and investigative features where smoke serves as a literal or metaphorical indicator of crisis, ranging from the aftermath of tragic disasters and industrial accidents to the figurative “smoke and mirrors” surrounding high-stakes political scandals, legal proceedings, and significant global events.
