DOJ's Pirro Drops Appeal in Fed Investigation, Unlikely to Satisfy Powell

How coverage differs
- Center: Pirro dropped her appeal against the Federal Reserve subpoena ruling, a move Center outlets like CNBC and Bloomberg report that the Justice Department's Pirro dropped her appeal against the ruling blocking subpoenas to the Federal Reserve. They note this move is unlikely to satisfy Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who had sought the subpoenas.
- Right: Pirro drops appeal, ending Fed probe; central bank avoids scrutiny Right-leaning outlets, specifically Newsmax, report that Pirro dropped the appeal against the Federal Reserve subpoenas after concluding the investigation. This framing suggests the appeal became irrelevant once the probe was closed, implying a decisive end to the matter.
