Why This Happened
Articles Behind This Score

Tone scores are generated from article headlines using a transparent headline tone scorer. Scores reflect language tone, not whether an article is true or false. A score of −10 indicates very negative/conflict-heavy language; +10 indicates very positive/stabilizing language.

Source origin refers to the media outlet/source location, not the country discussed in the article. For example, a Reuters article about Ukraine is tagged as United Kingdom source origin.
