Bias we have measured on this byline

Nothing scored on this byline yet.
From 12 reports we hold under this byline, at Gulf News. 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.
