Craft45/100

The reporting lacks detail on the incident's cause, consequences, or next steps, and does not include any affected parties.

Context, balance and separation of fact from comment. Higher is better.

Hype41/100

The headline uses strong language like 'TRUCK FIRE' and 'closes lanes' which is somewhat sensationalized for a traffic incident.

How far presentation runs ahead of substance. Lower is better.
