How the media write about finance and macro · over the last 3 days

For every outlet that writes about finance and macro, a language model rates the tone of its articles as positive, neutral or negative. That gives a tone index from 0 to 100, where 50 is balanced. At the top are the outlets that frame the news most positively, at the bottom the most negatively.

Showing outlets with ≥50 rated articles. 10 of 22 ranked. How it is calculated →

This is the tone of the articles as a model reads them, not a rating of an outlet's quality, reliability or bias. A high index often only means an outlet writes more about rallies and launches, a low one more about sell-offs, hacks and lawsuits.
