What they wrote

A few headlines per day, in the outlets’ own words; the translation is ours when shown.

Topics are clustered daily from article embeddings across the outlets we read and chained day over day when their centroids match (cosine ≥ 0.80); a story is attributed to the press of each outlet’s country. Where it was first seen is where it first appeared in our feeds. Coverage, not truth; order of appearance, not origin or intent. Method →
