The central claim rests on anonymous sourcing alone, with no named individuals or official documents cited.

How well corroborated and evidenced the reporting is. Higher is better.

Craft45/100

The reporting lacks detail on the cause, impact, or next steps, and is presented as a live update with minimal substance.

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

Hype61/100

The headline uses 'LIVE' and 'building fire' to create urgency, but the article provides little concrete information.

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