COVERAGE TONE NEGATIVE -28 · 297 TONED HEADLINES · SAME LEXICON AS THE DOSSIER SENTIMENT MONITOR — HOW THEIR COVERAGE SOUNDS, NOT A QUALITY VERDICT

WORLDVIEW LEXICON AFFINITY · MEASURED WEEKLY

How much this outlet's recent coverage vocabulary overlaps each published worldview's language markers. This measures what the outlet talks about in whose terms — affinity, not endorsement: heavy coverage of a faction's themes scores here whether the outlet cheers or debunks them. Drift over weeks is the signal.
