Yeah, I feel like Japan should be green, here.
Maybe. The one thing I can say for sure is that far too much of eastern Europe is coloured green.
Especially the Balkans. Western media doesn’t give two fucks about them.
You need to update this map with the rest of North America in the "A hopeless situation, just pray" or the "Nobody wants to be sad all day" categories.
nooooo the media in the west cares about when something happens in the west, sooo terrible
What about South Africa?
Elon isn't enough to sway the stats, even with his personal social network.
Literally do not care.
Correlates with media empire ownership.
That's funny. As someone from South of the US, I don't remember ever reading USian news articles and thinking, jee, this made my day!
This would be better with a more accurate projection, like Dymaxion. That black area is so much bigger than it looks here.
Yes! My favorite type of projection.

I'd argue that ot does the opposite like: "oh look, they did something." claps hands together. "good, then that's taken care of by someone else."
