Based on what I’ve read, I’d say CBS19’s headline is closer to accurate.
Screenshot of headlines from NBC29 and CBS19 describing a public meeting with the developer of Dairy Market concerning expansion of the site in the 10th and Page neighborhood. 29 calls it a “tense meeting.” 19 calls it an “angry crowd.” Based on what I’ve read, I’d say 19 got it right.
