Geography of attention
Coverage
Which places the news looks at, and which it doesn't. Everything here is counted from the archive of 32709 articles from 57 publishers over 91.7 days. The country charts use the 22,633 articles that have at least one mapped country. No language model is involved in these numbers.
Where the attention goes
A story can count once for each country in its mapped locations, so these totals overlap and do not add up to the 22,633 country-located articles.
