What these numbers mean
- Heat
- How much attention a story is getting right now — from how many outlets are covering it, how quickly new reports are appearing, whether that pace is rising, and how credible those outlets are. 0 is quiet. 100 is everyone covering it at once.
- Confidence
- How much weight to put on the heat reading itself — high when several independent signals agree, lower when we have measured fewer of them or they disagree. It rates the measurement, not the truth of the story.
- Peak
- The highest heat this story has reached since we started tracking it.
- Sources
- Independent newsrooms we found covering this story. Nothing appears on the chart until at least two of them do.
