- 2.1

- 0.3
- Desk headline score
- 3.4
0.3 below The National's own median on this topic. Measures anti-Palestinian framing in West Bank coverage. 0 means none detected, 10 means severe. Headline framing is left out of the byline score and shown separately, because subeditors write headlines, not reporters.
The articles behind the number
Every scored West Bank article under this byline in the window, newest first. The score on each row is that article's full composite, headline included, which is the number its own page shows; the median above excludes headline framing.
