Coverage Mix

1,654 classified coverage items · 1,211 measured articles · Jun 2025 – Sep 2026

What iPhone 17 coverage is made of over time: story type, claim stage as reported, and press framing. This measures the coverage, not the product.

Story type and claim stage are shares of the 1,654 classified coverage items in this window. Press framing is a share of the 1,653 of those whose framing could be read — vendor and primary-source items carry no framing.

How to read this

The stream below stacks each month's coverage by the lens you choose: Tone (how the press frames the story — promotional, skeptical, critical, or neutral), Story type (launches, funding, lawsuits, partnerships…), or Stage — how far the reported claim has gone: speculation → announcement → launch → results.

Taller bands mean more coverage that month; the dots beneath mark notable non‑neutral events. Every signal is sourced and dated.

Coverage is 57% announcement-stage (by claim stage) and mostly neutral — but promotional framing is edging up, now 12%, much of it on the Launch · Apple storyline.

How this is counted — why the article numbers differ

2,263 articles mention iPhone 17 across the corpus. The coverage make-up above is measured on the 1,211 of them that were read into dated, classified coverage items — and one article can produce more than one item, because story type, claim stage and framing are read separately.
