Bias read (Center): The article focuses on a technical issue with a software product and does not involve political figures, policies, or contentious topics. It provides factual information about the outage and its resolution without any apparent bias or framing that suggests a political leaning.

Why factuality (85): The article accurately reports Microsoft's statement about resolving the Teams outage in the Asia-Pacific region and cites Downdetector's data on the number of outage reports. It provides a clear timeline and does not introduce any unverified claims. The information aligns with the cross-source cons

Why objectivity (90): The article presents the information in a neutral tone, focusing on facts from Microsoft and Downdetector without expressing personal opinion or bias. It avoids emotionally charged language and remains focused on the event as reported by credible sources.
