Every sentence links to the reporting it rests on. The pill in front of each says where its sources sit: Left, Centre or Right when one side supplies at least half of them, Mixed when they are evenly split. The number is how many outlets it cites.
Left2 outlets
- Framing
- Both outlets report their own nominations as self-congratulatory trade announcements, listing every nominated piece. The Hollywood Reporter leads with a comparative claim of having the most nominations.
- Emphasis
- Nomination counts, individual staff nominees, and the full lists of nominated work.
- Leaves out or plays down
- Neither mentions the other's total in its own article, and neither gives a full tally for all outlets; the 'more than any other outlet' claim is THR's own.
- Charged language
- “Tops”“more than any other outlet”
- For example
