A running feed

This is a live blog: a running feed the outlet is still writing. We measure how it is written, but we do not summarise or rewrite it. Follow it at The Guardian Australia.

Headline check

Neither of the two things this headline claims is in the report.

  • “Cue” is named in the headline. We could not find it in the report.
  • “Veronika” is named in the headline. We could not find it in the report.
  • “Maine” is named in the headline. We could not find it in the report.
  • The headline puts “‘difficult period’” in quotation marks. Nobody says those words anywhere in the report.

Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. Names are matched as they are spelled, so a report that says “New South Wales” where the headline says “NSW” is queried here when it should not be. How this is checked

You are reading our version, not theirs. This is The Guardian Australia's report with its verdicts and loaded words taken out. Plain description stays, and so do adjectives that carry a fact, such as "former" or "federal". The reporting, the facts and the quotations are theirs — quotations are never edited — and the indicators beside it measure this version. Hover or tap Adjectives to see every one left in the text.
