## Reported figures

- 9 000 euros
- 9 000 €

## Coverage angles

Both sides report the same conviction, but the left-leaning title favors a narrative and anecdotal angle centered on the couple's relationship, while the right-leaning one highlights the convicted man's identity and origin.

**Common ground**

- Eight-month immediate prison sentence by the Aix-en-Provence court
- Embezzlement of more than 9,000 euros to the detriment of a 70-year-old partner
- The man is from Ivory Coast and is 48 years younger than his partner

**Differences**

- The right-leaning outlet names the convicted man and places his origin in the title; the left-leaning outlet does not name him and relegates his origin to the article body.
- The left-leaning title uses an anecdotal and quoted formulation, the right-leaning one a factual and nominative formulation.
