News & event severity

Rate headlines by severity, topic and region, and alert on the ones that matter.

For monitoring dashboards and risk teams: each headline gets a severity, a topic and a region, and developing stories are marked. Critical items alert, notable ones go on a watchlist, and the rest are logged.
