The full story

Locals in Melinka, in southern Chile, are pushing to protect ocean waters that have been hurt by intensive salmon farming. Yesica Fabiana Leviñanco steers a small wooden boat while her partner, Paulo Vera Perez, dives into the cold waters off the southern Chilean coast. Both are in their mid-40s. Within a few hours, the couple has filled the boat with shellfish, sea urchins, mussels and crabs. The account of their work on the water opens a report on the local effort to protect those seas.

The Washington Post, on the left, runs the headline "In southern Chile, locals push to protect oceans that have been hurt by intensive salmon farming" and opens with the Melinka dateline and the scene of Leviñanco steering the boat while Vera Perez dives. The Washington Times, on the right, uses the identical headline and the same opening sentence, but drops the dateline and writes the name without the accent as Levinanco. The available excerpts from both outlets are short and name no other sources, figures or positions, so no real difference in framing or emphasis can be drawn between them. The alternative source, AP, shares the same headline and opening but adds the couple's ages and the list of their catch.

How the sides differ Left, right and alternative sources run the same headline and opening scene; only the alternative excerpt shows more of the couple's catch, and the right-leaning one drops the accent.
