Open sourceArchive standard
Three rules, applied to every one of the 131+ items on this page. They are the reason the totals here are smaller than they could be.
An article written by a newsroom's own staff is listed as independent coverage. Nothing is counted twice because it appeared in more than one place.
When ANI or PTI issues a dispatch, every newsroom that carried it is recorded under that single dispatch. The reach is shown; the story is still one story.
Government releases, diplomatic-mission notices and advertorial or adjacent-sector pieces are separated from editorial media, so nobody has to guess what they are reading.
