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 Sydney Morning Herald.
From the report
This is a summary. The indicators are not. The scores were measured over this summary alone, which is less of the article than we would like and makes them less certain.
How this outlet filed it, and how we rewrote it
No other newsroom we read has filed on this event, so there is nothing to compare it with yet.
Also covered by The Age, WAtoday, Brisbane Times. We hold only their summary of it, not the report, so there is nothing of theirs to measure here.

Comments are read before they appear where anything in them needs a person to look. Nothing posted here is ever deleted; a comment taken down keeps its text and the reason, so the decision can be looked at again. How this works
