About this map
Hottub News counted 818,472 reports from outlets in 163 countries for September 2026. The US, the UK and Germany published the most (136,353 reports), and the five busiest countries account for 40% of the total.
The most widely covered stories were: “UK police question five men held at airbase used by US to attack Iran” (317 outlets, mostly the UK and the US); “Planned attack on US military base: Five arrests shake RAF Fairford” (334 outlets, mostly the US and the UK); “Starship, world's most powerful spacecraft, to launch in attempt to orbit Earth for first time” (423 outlets, mostly the US and Germany).
Each report is placed in the country of the outlet that published it (from its feed, web domain or Wikidata), not where the events happened. Stories group reports of the same event across outlets and languages; for a week or month, a story's outlet count is its biggest day's. 183,249 more reports came from outlets whose country is unknown; they count toward stories but not the map. Paid placements are never included.
