The Spin

Pro-government narrative

Emergency response teams have shown remarkable efficiency and dedication, working tirelessly to rescue 155 people alive. Authorities deserve applause for assisting families and properly managing the complex disaster response despite the challenging circumstances.

Reuters

Opposition narrative

This tragedy is a catastrophic failure of building safety standards. The structure was decades old, had been converted from a movie theater to a nightclub without proper consideration for different safety parameters, and had suffered previous fire damage that may have compromised its integrity.
