Over the last two weeks, 3% of the coverage about Oman came from outlets based in Oman — the rest was written from abroad (12,720 articles with a known outlet home country).

Daily share of coverage about Oman from domestic outlets (%): 91 days, latest 0.00 on 2026-10-040.005.010.0Jul 6Jul 22Aug 7Aug 23Sep 8Sep 24Oct 4

Share of articles about Oman 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.
