Challenger to Mugabe

I thought this was interesting because the different articles are very obvious as to what's important and what's not, in accordance with each. In most news articles, the journalists talk about the fact that Mugabe's ex-finance minister, Simba Makoni, will be running against him in the next ellections (African press). However, in the BBC article, it doesn't mention Makoni at all, but instead mentions another opposition leader, Morgan Tsvangirai. Finally, in a third article on the issue, there is no mention of the opposition that Makoni is facing, not even mentioning is explusion from the party if he were to run (CNN).
