How We Measure Tone

Tone is a numeric score from −6 to +6 measuring how a statement characterizes legislation — not whether we agree with it. The score reflects language intensity, not correctness.

−6 −3 0 +3 +6
−5.0
Strongly Critical

“They named a mass detention bill after one victim to make it politically impossible to oppose.”

— Joy Reid on the Laken Riley Act
−1.5
Mildly Critical

“The concern from civil liberties groups is the 48-hour takedown mandate — that gives platforms an incentive to over-remove content.”

— Chris Hayes on the TAKE IT DOWN Act
+0.0
Neutral

“The bill passed the House 218 to 206 with two Democratic votes. It faces a 60-vote threshold in the Senate.”

— Jake Tapper on the Sports Act
+2.0
Mildly Favorable

“The One Big Beautiful Bill was a solid win, in part because it dodged some terrible policy.”

— Kimberley Strassel on the OBBBA
+5.2
Strongly Favorable

“This is a common-sense bill. Laken Riley would be alive today if this law had been in place.”

— Sean Hannity on the Laken Riley Act

Tone measures how a personality frames legislation, not whether their framing is accurate. A +5.0 and a −5.0 can both be factually correct — the score reflects advocacy intensity. We don't rate outlets as left or right. We measure what they say.

On Air vs. Under Oath

What Laura Ingraham said on camera vs. what court filings revealed. Every quote links to public court records.

On Air
“We hear enough from people about irregularities, enough that it warrants investigation. These are legitimate concerns about vote-counting systems.”
The Ingraham Angle, Fox News 2020-11-13
vs.

“Sidney Powell is a complete nut. No one will work with her. Ditto with Rudy.”

The Ingraham Angle, Fox News 2020-12-14
vs.

“215 to 214. One vote. That is how close they came to killing the entire Trump domestic agenda. The holdouts who nearly torpedoed this bill need to understand: your voters sent you there to do this.”
favorable tone: +3.0 re: One Big Beautiful Bill Act 2025-05-22
“Melania Trump went to Capitol Hill personally to push this bill. It protects women and children from having deepfake images of them circulated online. The First Lady got it done. 409 to 2 in the House.”
favorable tone: +4.0 re: TAKE IT DOWN Act 2025-05-19
“Twelve Democrats voted for this. Twelve. That tells you how politically toxic the open border position has become. Even their own members are running from it.”
favorable tone: +3.8 re: Laken Riley Act 2025-01-29
“The House passed the Born-Alive Act 217 to 204. Every baby born alive deserves medical care. The fact that this is even controversial tells you everything about where the Democratic Party is on this issue.”
favorable tone: +4.0 re: Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act 2025-01-23
“218 to 206. The House said biological males should not compete in women's sports. Two Democrats voted yes. This should not be a partisan issue — it is a fairness issue.”
favorable tone: +4.5 re: Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025 2025-01-14
