𧬠Its fingerprint
π·οΈ Outside the partisan webs
Everyone outside the two partisan webs, from the wires to cable news: a big, mixed group that runs more of the stories everyone runs. Not a mark of quality or lean; its look-alikes say more.
π‘ Wire: 61st percentile. Its stories and headline words are closer to the AP's and Reuters' than 61% of the 75 outlets we fingerprint.
πΆοΈ Heat: 32nd percentile. Its headlines are worded more heatedly (loaded words, combat verbs, anger) than 32% of them.
π― Behaves most like New York Times, CBS News and Scripps News.
From what it did on its front page in the last 28 days (129 of our stories, 656 headlines), not from its ratings.
