✕ Framing by Emphasis [6/10]: The headline emphasizes a 'plummet' in support while still stating O’Callaghan is the favourite, creating a contradictory frame that overemphasises decline without clarifying current standings.

✓ Proper Attribution [8/10]: The article attributes the data clearly to a specific poll, enhancing credibility and neutrality.

✕ Omission [8/10]: The article mentions a 22-point drop but provides no source for this figure within the text, nor details on sample size, methodology, or date, undermining credibility.

✕ Vague Attribution [6/10]: Refers to 'voters who were asked' without specifying who conducted the survey beyond naming the poll brand, lacking detail on methodology or respondent criteria.

✕ Omission [9/10]: Fails to provide context such as the timing of the poll, margin of error, sample demographics, or comparison to previous polls beyond a vague 'nosedived' claim.

✕ Cherry-Picking [6/10]: Mentions O’Callaghan’s drop and Chambers’ position but offers no data on other potential candidates or party dynamics, limiting full picture.
