Over the last two weeks, 2% of the coverage about Angola came from outlets based in Angola — the rest was written from abroad (2,177 articles with a known outlet home country).

Daily share of coverage about Angola from domestic outlets (%): 90 days, latest 0.00 on 2026-10-030.0010.020.0Jul 6Jul 21Aug 5Aug 20Sep 4Sep 19Oct 3

Share of articles about Angola produced by domestic outlets, computed daily across GDELT's English and translated streams. Outlet home countries are mapped per news domain (GDELT source-country data); articles from unmapped outlets are excluded from the denominator. A very low share during major events can mean the story is being told about a place rather than from it.
