Neutral summary
The Bangladesh Meteorological Department said a deep depression over the east-central Bay of Bengal could intensify into a cyclone on Monday and later an extremely severe cyclone, crossing the Andhra Pradesh coast in India around Wednesday, 28 October. Articles give the depression's position as 730 to 840 km south of Chitagong, Cox's Bazar, Mongla and Payra ports; winds within 48 km of its centre reached 50 km/h, gusting to 60 km/h, with rough seas nearby. The department asked the four sea ports to display Signal 1 and fishing boats and trawlers in the north Bay of Bengal to stay close to the coast and proceed with caution until further notice. Indian forecasters, cited by Dainik Sangbad, said the storm could hit between Bapatla and Visakhapatnam with sustained winds of 115 to 125 km/h and was named 'Arnab'. Bangladeshi forecasters said direct impact on Bangladesh was less likely, but rain was expected in several divisions over the following days.
Where accounts differ. Dhaka Post reports the system as an extremely severe cyclone already formed and forecasts rain across all eight divisions for five days, while Prothom Alo and Protidiner Sangbad describe only a possible cyclone and Naya Diganta gives a 28 October landfall date without the Indian forecast details.

About this method
Method. Bias types follow the Table of Media Bias Elements and the Media Bias Taxonomy (both CC BY 4.0). The impartiality rules follow the BBC Editorial Guidelines and the Ofcom Broadcasting Code. This analysis was made by claude-opus-5-5 on rubric 1.0.0. The score is calculated from the seven answers, never generated.
What this is not. No outlet gets a standing bias rating, and there is no left/right axis, because that axis does not describe Bangladeshi politics. Each analysis covers one article about one event. Members' analytics count how each outlet's headlines were labelled over a chosen period, with the number of headlines behind every share, and also show the average score of an outlet's scored articles: that average describes those articles (mostly each story's lead), not the outlet, and outlets are never ranked by it or by any share.
Known limits. Headlines are grouped into stories automatically, so an unrelated headline sometimes slips in; it is shown faded rather than hidden. Where outlets carry the same wire copy, the comparison has little to show. Human annotators agree on bias in Bangla news only moderately (κ = 0.574 at best), which limits what any automated score can claim.
