## Reported figures

- 14 arrests
- 200 millions d'euros

## Coverage angles

Both sides cover the same judicial event, but the left emphasizes the criminal qualification and the amount embezzled, while the center favors the educational angle and the unprecedented nature of the case.

**Common ground**

- Opening of the trial in Paris
- Thirteen people and three companies on trial
- Concealment of assets and international tax fraud

**Differences**

- The left explicitly cites the 200 million euro amount and the organized money laundering qualification, absent from the center excerpts
- The center highlights the one-month trial duration and the notion of a "turning point", little present in the left excerpt
