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.

All 9 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.
