- Coverage
- 38 outlets in 28 countries, across 5 regions. The article links are no longer held: they lasted a week past the story’s last article; the outlet list is permanent. Of the 38 outlets, 4 state-owned, 2 public-service, 32 private. A count of countries is not a count of independent press systems.
- Countries by region
- Africa 1: South Africa. Americas 8: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Jamaica, Mexico, United States. Asia-Pacific 3: China, Hong Kong, Singapore. Europe 12: Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Russia, United Kingdom. Middle East 4: Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates. 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, Greek, English, Spanish, French, Hungarian, Italian, Lithuanian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese.
- Timeline
- Earliest article Global News, 21 Sept 2026, 17:49 UTC. First seen 21 Sept 2026, 18:00 UTC. Last seen 23 Sept 2026, 15:16 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 Americas, Canada. Topic Technology. 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
- 19.40, at the end of the last day measured. 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.
- Day by day
Outlets and countries are the story’s whole life as of that midnight; the 24-hour columns are that day’s own coverage; the last column is the methodology version the day was measured under, and a day that spans a change of version shows the first and last, linked to the changelog that lists every version between. A day marked partial is one Loudest read only in part: fewer than 130 of its 144 ten-minute runs, or more than 30 minutes missed at its start or end.
