a message that states information about an event

Report (noun) means: a message that states information about an event. It emerges from message, state, happen, event: The message conveys knowledge while the state marks the event's condition and the occurrence grounds it in time and place. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 8, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
