Article analysis
Band BLocalised faults
The Daily WaadaaNeutral
Largely factual report whose headline links the jailing to political regret; police explanations are quoted, but the woman's side and the BNP supporters who surrounded her are not heard.
Four of the eight outlets that covered this event headlined it neutrally.
The faults are local; the reporter's narration stays descriptive.

Evidence
1Headline-body attribution mismatchHeadline voice
Woman sent to jail after expressing regret over voting for BNP
Headline juxtaposes jailing with political regret, implying causation, though the body supports the sequence and mentions the 151 preventive case; mild compression.
2CoverageReporter voice
local BNP supporters and businessmen surrounded Shathi
BNP supporters who surrounded her are not quoted or asked for response, nor is Shathi or her lawyer.
3Cherry pickingReporter voice
They later filed a case against her under Section 151
No independent legal view on whether preventive detention fits the facts; only police explanation given.

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.
