BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Algeria-focused framing: the two articles rely exclusively on official announcements from the national scientific organization, without any outside voices or citizen testimony.

Preference for hourly and numerical data: coverage prioritizes technical precision (minutes, percentages) over the surrounding tourist or commercial context of the event elsewhere.

Limited coverage of international comparison: the path of totality in Spain and Greenland is only mentioned in one sentence, without exploring the issues of crowd control or security that are prominent elsewhere.
