The figures

Coverage: 9 outlets in 5 countries. The article links are kept for good for every story that reaches the map. Of the 9 outlets, 9 private. A count of countries is not a count of independent press systems.
Countries by region: Europe 5: Austria, Belgium, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland. 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: German, Dutch.
Timeline: Earliest article Der Standard, 7 Oct 2026, 20:54 UTC. First seen 7 Oct 2026, 21:00 UTC. Last seen 8 Oct 2026, 13:42 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, Germany. Topic Environment. Hard news Judged not hard news, unsure. Shown, because it was on the map and one verdict does not remove a story; a second would. 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: 0.16, 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.
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.
