Each metric maps to a core News Physics operator: Np, Ir, or Hs.

Disappears even if published. | Technical report during election campaign. | | 2 | Weak Fit | Partial overlap but fundamental incompatibility. | Economic story on entertainment platform. | | 3 | Moderate Fit | Enters the system but leaves no lasting mark. | Political scandal in a standard news cycle. | | 4 | High Fit | Slots into a gap the system was waiting for. | Tender scandal during budget hearings. | | 5 | Perfect Fit | Agenda, channel, timing, actors align perfectly. | Election fraud claim published on election night. | Actor Power (AP) · Ss = AP × Issue Weight × Social Contact | Score | Label | Definition | Example | | ----- | --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 1 | Micro Actor | Individual/local level. No leverage effect. | Neighbourhood official irregularities. | | 2 | Local Actor | Regional/sectoral level. Impact limited to a specific geography. | Municipal mayor's tender scandal. | | 3 | National Actor | Nationally recognised; decisions affect broad audience. | Deputy minister's company. Major CEO. | | 4 | Strong State / Market | At the centre of decision-making. One move affects entire systems. | Minister's family-linked tender. Bank board. | | 5 | Systemic Actor | International institution / global reach. Decisions affect multiple national systems. | Global health org financial irregularities affecting international aid flows. | Tension (T) · T = f(Np, Ir) — normalised Np/Ir ratio | Score | Label | Definition | Example | | ----- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | | 1 | No Tension | Almost no conflict between Np and Ir. | Official press release. State-controlled media. | | 2 | Low Tension | Partial conflict, balance has clearly shifted. | Competitive but politically risk-free story. | | 3 | Moderate Tension | Np and Ir genuinely facing each other. Editorial decision critical. | Politically sensitive but documented claim. | | 4 | High Tension | Np strong, Ir resisting. Story runs but at a cost. | Story threatening major advertiser. Legal pressure. | | 5 | Maximum Tension | Np at ceiling, Ir near infinity. Censorship breaking point. | WikiLeaks-type leak. Journalist arrested or exiled. | Diffusion (D) · D = dNp/dt — time derivative of News Pressure | Score | Label | Definition | Example | | ----- | ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | | 1 | Local Diffusion | Story stayed on original platform. Fast entropy. | Regional story remaining in local newspaper. | | 2 | Moderate Diffusion | A few channels picked it up. Short momentum. | Political statement in small national items. | | 3 | Wide Diffusion | Multiple national channels. Agenda open for days. | Minister scandal, several days in news cycle. | | 4 | Viral Diffusion | Went viral and / or international media pick-up. | Pandora Papers-type — international coverage. | | 5 | Systemic Diffusion | Story transformed the system. Investigation, resignation, legislation. | Watergate. Panama Papers. Government fell. | Profile Interpretation Guide | Profile | Interpretation | | ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | SF:5 AP:5 T:1 D:5 | Powerful actor, low resistance, published, large impact. Ideal condition. | | SF:4 AP:4 T:5 D:2 | Strong story, high pressure, published — but low diffusion. Channel problem or timing error. | | SF:3 AP:3 T:2 D:3 | Balanced, normal news case. System is functioning. | | SF:1 AP:5 T:5 D:1 | Powerful actor, maximum tension, system suppressed. Censorship case. | | SF:2 AP:1 T:1 D:4 | Weak actor, low tension, went viral.
