Share of articles about Mongolia 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.
