How the outlets frame it

5 outlets, each read from its own headline and opening
  • Stands outThe Guardian (mildly sensational, some charged words, one-sided), PBS NewsHour (tabloid, some charged words, one-sided) and CBS News (mildly sensational, one-sided).
  • PlainestNewsweek and The Hill.
Sensational
Measured
Across: does the report cast the development as bad news or good news. Up: does the report play the story up to grab attention. A thin line joins a logo nudged aside to its exact point. 1 outlet could not be placed on both measures.

Tap a logo to see the outlet, the headline it was read from, and where it sits on every measure.

All 5 outlets and the headlines they were read from

Each outlet is read blind: a classifier sees its headline and opening next to the story's own headline, without the outlet's name, and scores how the report presents the story. A logo sits at the classifier's average reading, so it can fall between two levels. These readings compare coverage of this story only; they are not ratings of the outlets.
