How the media write about video games · over the last 7 days

For every domain that writes about video games, a language model rates the tone of its articles as positive, neutral or negative. That gives a tone index from 0 to 100, where 50 is balanced. At the top are the domains that frame the news most positively, at the bottom the most negatively.

Showing domains with ≥50 rated articles. 15 of 51 ranked. How it is calculated →

This is the tone of the articles as a model reads them, not a rating of a domain's quality, reliability or bias. A high index often only means a domain writes more about rallies and launches, a low one more about sell-offs, hacks and lawsuits.
