Coverage origin: local vs international

Over the last two weeks, 8% of the coverage about Haiti came from outlets based in Haiti — the rest was written from abroad (4,051 articles with a known outlet home country).

Daily share of coverage about Haiti from domestic outlets (%): 91 days, latest 7.41 on 2026-10-040.0012.525.0Jul 6Jul 22Aug 7Aug 23Sep 8Sep 24Oct 4

Share of articles about Haiti 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.
