Information Density: Taste (News Corp Australia) – Signal Evidence & AI Readability

Taste (News Corp Australia)

Information Density — The Lens

Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.

Info Density Power-words vs. Substance ratio.

87% Reputation

The page contains zero power words or marketing-driven fluff, with 0% of headings containing descriptors like revolutionary or best-in-class. Instead, the text is composed of high-substance technical specifications, including a specific IP address (77.37.37.89) and a unique reference number. The ratio of marketing language to specific data is zero, though the site is penalized 3 points for repeating the bot-blocking claim four times across headings and body text. It earns 1 point for specificity absence because it provides only 6 distinct technical markers (IP, reference ID, email, entity name, JavaScript, and AdBlocker references).

Information Density is read straight from the body copy: how much of the text carries grounded, checkable substance versus hollow filler. Below is the clean text the engine analyzed, then the industry’s known generic-claim patterns to weigh it against.
