From the report
Headline check
One of the two things this headline claims did not turn up in the report.
- “Jailed” is named in the headline. We could not find it 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. One figure in this headline has a decimal point in it. We match figures digit for digit against the report, and that comparison is not reliable for decimals, so that one was not checked either way rather than reported as missing. How this is checked
A summary of The Guardian Australia (Business)’s report. The score is for the full 560-word report.
