## Coverage angles

The three political leanings cover the same fact (arson destruction of five trucks belonging to the Vendredi 13 association in Marseille), but the centre stresses the extent of the aid provided and the question of the perpetrators, while the right highlights the operational consequences (suspended food distributions, temporary layoffs).

**Common ground**

- Five trucks belonging to the Vendredi 13 association were destroyed by arson on the night of November 4-5 in Marseille.
- The association supports deprived individuals.
- 14 employees are placed on temporary layoff.

**Differences**

- The centre mentions the number of 14,000 people helped, absent from the right-wing article.
- The centre explicitly raises the question of the perpetrators or motivations of the arson, an angle not picked up by the right.
- The right details the suspension of food distributions and the partial maintenance of food aid, not detailed in the centre excerpts.
