The Wilting Climate Change Debate coding data

It is very apparent that this article is written from a liberal writer when coding for the bias of the author. For this article I decided to code for how many paragraphs were based in opinion and how many were based in fact. I calculated that of the 10 paragraphs of the story, seven were reliant on facts. Consequently this shows that despite the author very strongly stating his opinion in the article, there is a very significant amount of factual evidence to back his argument up rather than simply bemoaning the Republicans for ignoring the climate issue. This is useful to note given that only four out of 15 reviewers ranked the story below a 3.0, which indicates most reviewers think that the story is at least relatively goo journalism. In addition it is important to note that the facts of the story were rated by all of the reviewers as a 3.7 in total.
