✕ Headline / Body Mismatch [9/10]: The headline focuses on CMAT's personal experience with body shaming, which is the central theme of her statement. It avoids exaggeration and accurately reflects the content of the article.

"CMAT says success is being tarnished by body shaming"

✕ Loaded Language [5/10]: The article quotes CMAT’s emotionally charged language (e.g., 'gorgeous genius', 'horribly I am treated') without editorial distance, potentially amplifying subjective framing. However, these are clearly marked as her words.

"It is literally so boring for me, a gorgeous genius, to keep having to yap on about how horribly I am treated because of my body"

✕ Editorializing [9/10]: The reporting voice itself remains neutral, using straightforward language and avoiding editorializing. The tone is respectful and factual in describing the events.

"CMAT has said her success is being "tarnished" by ongoing body shaming as she prepares for a sold-out Dublin show this weekend."

✕ Single-Source Reporting [5/10]: The article relies solely on CMAT’s public statement and does not include responses from critics, social media commentators, or independent experts on body image or online harassment. This creates a one-sided narrative, though the subject is a personal testimony.

✓ Viewpoint Diversity [6/10]: The only external voice included is Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s supportive comment, which reinforces CMAT’s position but does not offer counterpoint or analysis. This limits viewpoint diversity.

"The post received messages of support from fans and fellow musicians, including Sophie Ellis-Bextor, who said it was "hard to read"."

✓ Proper Attribution [10/10]: All claims about abuse and personal impact are properly attributed to CMAT’s own statement, maintaining clear sourcing boundaries.

"CMAT said it had been difficult to describe how hard the past few days had been..."

✕ Episodic Framing [7/10]: The article frames the story as a personal struggle rather than examining systemic issues around body image, media representation, or online toxicity. This episodic framing focuses on CMAT’s individual experience without connecting it to wider patterns.

"CMAT said it had been difficult to describe how hard the past few days had been..."

✕ Framing by Emphasis [6/10]: The story emphasizes emotional impact and personal hardship, which is appropriate given the source material, but does not explore counter-narratives or structural causes, leaning toward sympathy appeal.

"I simply have to sit here and take it."
