Coverage difference: Both sources, namely ISNA and Defa Press, similarly referred to the signing of a three-year memorandum of understanding between the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology and the Vice Presidency for Rural Development and Underprivileged Areas to develop the ecosystem of innovation, technology, and entrepreneurship in rural and underprivileged areas. ISNA places greater emphasis on “transferring technology to villages,” while Defa Press uses the term “agreement” instead of “memorandum of understanding”; however, the main content of the news is the same in both sources, and no significant contradiction or omission is observed.
