Captured for this day: 1185 items from 22 outlets, 56 of the day’s stories carried by more than one. How much of the day was captured depends on when ingestion ran — see the note under the calendar.
14 calendar days, 07 Aug – 20 Aug 2026. Days with nothing captured are greyed out and inert. The archive holds 79,623 items across 44 days; earlier ones are reachable with the previous-day link below.
Captured live: the first item from 20 August 2026 reached the crawler 0 minutes after it was published, so the crawler was running while this day’s items were still inside every feed’s window. It is sampled well. Each RSS feed returns only its latest 15–200 items, so a day’s total is a record of what the crawler saw rather than a measurement of the day: a smaller count is a collection artefact, not a finding. It does not mean less news happened.
Ranked by how many separate items outlets published on this one calendar day (UTC) — the one reach-style measure that is comparable across outlets today. Bars show the mainstream and alternative share of the outlets covering each story.
Iran America War Update: Trump का ऐलान, Strait of Hormuz पर अमेरिका का कंट्रोल! ईरान का बड़ा हमला is the day’s clearest saturation event. 6 outlets, 12 items, 6 of them inside 2 hours — ABP News, CNN-News18, India Today, Republic Bharat, Times of India (web) running near-continuous coverage of one story. Not one alternative outlet in the sample touched it.
22 outlets published items captured on 20 August 2026, 6 of them alternative, 1185 items in total. Every outlet links to its own site or channel so any figure here can be walked back to where it came from.
Share is share of what was captured, not of what was published. An item count is publishing volume — a channel posting rolling updates outweighs one filing twice — and on any day before ingestion started it is also capped by how far back that outlet’s feed reached. Stories counts how many of the day’s multi-outlet stories a source touched, which is the closer measure of agenda weight.

Read this as a description of a 22-outlet sample on one day, not a verdict on Indian media. The mainstream set is larger and posts far more often, so it will dominate any raw count. The number worth watching over weeks is the second one — and on days captured before ingestion started, both numbers are held down by how little of that day was collected at all.
