BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

France's government notes a discrepancy in the numbered breakdown: the tolls of flights and passengers affected differ significantly from one source to another for the same incident.

« ces fermetures ont affecté plus de 150 000 passagers et perturbé 467 vols, dont 58 vols internationaux et 409 vols intérieurs »
lemonde.fr ↗

France relies on a common official source: several media outlets repeat an almost identical formulation of the ministerial statement, with no independent source cited.

« Des tests ont indiqué "la dispersion de cendres volcaniques dans la zone de l'aéroport international Soekarno-Hatta" conduisant à "la fermeture de l'aéroport" »
