Anger in the words of the stories about people being harmed

100 is its average over these days: 150 means half as much again. Measured over whole days, never one story. It moves with what the news was about as well as with its words: anger rises when more of it is about conflict and violence. Thin dashed line: the same with the mix of parts of life held at these days' own mix, so it moves only when the words within each part change. 7 days, 18 Oct to 24 Oct. Every point opens its day.
