How score signals are formed
Bias score signalBias signal combines framing pressure, emotional wording, selective emphasis, and one-sided narrative markers.
Emotionality signalEmotionality rises when evidence contains emotionally loaded wording and evaluative labels.
One-sidedness signalOne-sidedness rises when one frame dominates and alternative interpretations are weakly represented.
Evidence strength signalEvidence strength rises with concrete claims, attributed statements, and verifiable contextual support.
