Bias we have measured on this byline
How hard the claim is stated The slowdown is hedged as an estimate while the 10% GDP rebound in the next sentence is stated flat ×1Which figure is used The headline says growth stalled; the body reports the same quarter's GDP up more than 10 per cent, and the report never names which measure stalled. ×1How deeply it is sourced The judgement that undercuts its own headline number is credited to unnamed economists, none quoted ×1

Two independent readings, each made without the masthead, with the quote attached to every tag. We do not carry a rating for any
journalist — only what we have measured from published text, and a verdict on a
claim is a verdict on that sentence, not on the person who filed it.
