Every outlet on UK Politics, check by check

Higher scores mean more vilification of communities. Scale: 0 to 10. 30 outlets and 1,144 articles over the last 90 days.

About these scores

Ranks outlets by the share of their articles about a community (Muslims, migrants, trans people, Travellers, Jewish or Black people) that frame it, in the outlet's own voice, as a threat, as criminals, as a burden or as an invasion. Reporting what someone else said does not count.

Every article from the last 90 days is scored on the same checks. Samples under 25 articles are marked as limited, because the median can move on a few pieces. Updated 22 Oct, 18:41 UTC. How it works

Checks are ordered by how much data each has. “Not yet” means too few scored articles for a fair median.
