Across 33 classified coverage items, one item is 3 percentage points — read the shares below as the shape of a small sample, not as figures precise to the point.

Story type and claim stage are shares of the 33 classified coverage items in this window.

Framing Critical 30%, otherwise neutral
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 64% launch-stage (by claim stage) and mostly neutral — but critical framing is rising, now 30%, much of it on the Launch · Wordfence storyline.
Corporate coverage — the stage ladder reflects how far this company's announced moves had progressed, not a verdict on the company.

How this is counted — why the article numbers differ

31 articles mention Wordfence across the corpus. The coverage make-up above is measured on the 21 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.
