Neutral summary

from 5 outlets' reporting

Bangladesh's Directorate General of Health Services reported six measles-related deaths in the 24 hours to Monday morning, bringing the total since 15 March to 1,233 (1,129 with measles symptoms and 104 confirmed). Officials recorded 1,466 new cases in the period, including 78 confirmed, and 23,478 confirmed cases overall. Prothom Alo said the outbreak has no precedent in the country's history and attributed the spread to vaccination failures under the interim government in 2025, citing criticism from WHO and UNICEF; it said 4 million children were missed by a vaccination drive. Amar Desh and Daily Naya Diganta reported five deaths on Sunday, while Manab Zamin and Ajker Patrika reported six on Monday.

Where accounts differ. Amar Desh and Daily Naya Diganta reported five deaths in a Sunday bulletin, while Prothom Alo, Manab Zamin and Ajker Patrika reported six in the Monday update, and Prothom Alo alone attributes the outbreak to the interim government's vaccination failures.

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. 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.
