Excerpt:

BEAUMONT, Texas Two people perished and more than 80 individuals were harmed Thursday when a minimum of 100 %%PRO11%% collided in Southeast Texas in a pileup that left trucks twisted on top of each other and authorities hurrying to pull survivors from the wreckage. The accident occurred in incredibly foggy conditions at about 8:45 a.m. Thanksgiving Day on Interstate 10 southwest of Beaumont, a Gulf Coast city about 80 miles eastern of Houston. A man and a lady were eliminated in a Chevy Suburban SUV crushed by a tractor trailer, the Texas Department of Public Safety told KFDM-TV. Authorities at Acadian Ambulance service said a minimum of 51 individuals have been taken area hospitals and a minimum of eight are seriously harmed.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
