The final elections of the Iranian Parliaments governing board were held on Tuesday, and MPs elected Ali Larijani as the Speaker, Masoud Pezeshkian as the 1st Vice-Speaker, and Ali Motahari as the 2nd Vice-Speaker of the Parliament.
The elections were covered by Iranian newspapers on Wednesday in different ways. While all reformist papers expressed their joy over their victory, almost all conservative media refused to even cover the development. Such newspapers as Hemayat, Resalat, and Vatan-e Emrooz didnt cover the related news, or at most covered Larijanis re-election as Speaker.
Kayhan, however, mentioned the names of Motahari and Pezeshkian in small font, and said that the reformists were deluded in calling the result a victory.
A press conference for Asghar Farhadis latest film The Salesman was also widely covered in Iranian media.
