Discourse monitor

How the monitored publications were assessed

Discourse valence across every scored item: what the sampled sources published and how independent models read it. It is not a measure of public opinion, not a measure of the state of the world, and article volume is not agreement.


Range
Mean discourse valence per day · climate-energy · last 180 days
-100-500+50+100 2026-09-10: -46 (1 items)2026-09-11: +33 (1 items) 2026-09-10 2026-09-11

This line is the mean of every item scored on each day. It deliberately ignores the reading filter, because a daily mean of only the strongly adverse items would move with how many were filtered out rather than with the discourse.

Discourse valence, strongly adverse

No item matches this filter, so there is no reading to show. A mean of nothing is not zero.

0 items read as strongly adverse

No item in the last 180 days reads strongly adverse under climate-energy. Widen the window, clear the topic, or drop the reading filter.

Across the whole window

The two tables below describe every item in the last 180 days under climate-energy. They are deliberately not narrowed by the reading filter (currently strongly adverse), because a mean taken only over items already selected for their score would just restate the filter.

By source

A source's mean says how the items it published were read. It is not a rating of the source.
