The figures

Coverage: 33 outlets in 25 countries, across 4 regions. The article links last a week past the story’s last article; the outlet list is permanent. Of the 33 outlets, 2 state-owned, 2 public-service, 29 private. A count of countries is not a count of independent press systems.
Countries by region: Americas 2: Brazil, Mexico. Asia-Pacific 9: Bangladesh, China, Japan, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand. Europe 12: Czechia, Denmark, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Sweden, United Kingdom. Middle East 2: Oman, Saudi Arabia. The region a country’s press publishes from, as the feed list files it; the outlets that publish from no single country count as one country under International.
Languages: Czech, Danish, German, English, Spanish, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Nepali, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Swedish, Thai, Chinese.
Timeline: Earliest article RMF24, 6 Oct 2026, 05:51 UTC. First seen 6 Oct 2026, 06:10 UTC. Last seen 6 Oct 2026, 13:21 UTC. The earliest article is the earliest claimed publication time among the outlets Loudest reads, a claim rather than an observation and not a record of who broke the story (the data files call it the lead article); first seen is when Loudest first fetched an article of it, from which the running time counts.
Classification: Region Europe, Sweden. Topic Science & health. Hard news Judged not hard news. Left off the map. Whether the story is hard news under the rule in the methodology, judged from its headlines by a model; a story judged outside the rule is left off the map and kept here. The region and country are where the story is about, not where it was covered.
Score: 1.11, as of now. One vote per general-press country and a smaller term for outlets, each counted from the moment it joined the story and fading on its own clock, so a late article does not renew the rest. A day in the archive keeps the score it was ranked by that day.
Chain: Merged into Belgian scientist wins Nobel Prize in physics for neutrino discovery. A story continues another when it resembled it as it began, past that story’s own 48-hour box. A story merged from several was grouped from stories about the same event; each keeps its own headline and page, and the whole story counts every outlet and country once.
