Headline check
The headline claims nothing the report does not, but it puts it more firmly than the report does.
- The headline states “confirms” outright. In the report the claim is attributed to somebody, or hedged.
Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. How this is checked
This is a summary. The indicators are not. Every score on this page was measured over the full 231-word report, which is the only way the numbers mean anything.
How each outlet filed it
Also covered by The West Australian. We hold only their summary of it, not the report, so there is nothing of theirs to measure here.
