Media reporting of Labour’s nationalisation policy

An interesting blog post at media monitoring company iSentia. Some graphs from their blog post:

Interesting that initial media coverage was pretty positive, but as the ramifications became clearer, the negative articles increased.

Initially the focus was on the policy itself. Then more stories started to focus on the market impact and also on the overall political strategy.

This one is especially interesting. Basically any story that looks at the actual impact on the market is a negative story, but those that look just at the policy or the strategy are more positive than negative.
