The figures

Coverage: 78 outlets in 46 countries, across 5 regions, 2 of them trade press. The article links are kept for good for every story that reaches the map. Of the 78 outlets, 3 state-owned, 7 public-service, 68 private. A count of countries is not a count of independent press systems.
Countries by region: Africa 5: Cabo Verde, Ghana, Nigeria, Tunisia, Zambia. Americas 5: Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico. Asia-Pacific 7: Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Pakistan, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan. Europe 21: Albania, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom. Middle East 8: Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Yemen. 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: Arabic, Azerbaijani, Bulgarian, Bosnian, Danish, German, Greek, English, Spanish, Persian, Finnish, French, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Lithuanian, Malay, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Albanian, Swedish, Turkish, Chinese.
Timeline: Earliest article The Express Tribune, 10 Oct 2026, 11:04 UTC. First seen 10 Oct 2026, 16:50 UTC. Last seen 11 Oct 2026, 12:20 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 Middle East, Saudi Arabia. Topic Conflict & Security. Hard news Judged hard news. On 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: None of its own. It was merged into Attack on Riyadh airport causes casualties and disrupts flights in Saudi Arabia, and the map counts it only inside that story. 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 Attack on Riyadh airport causes casualties and disrupts flights in Saudi Arabia. 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.

How this was measured

This page describes measured coverage: which of the outlets Loudest reads carried the story, from how many countries and in how many languages, and when. It says nothing about whether the story is true, important or well reported.
