The two bars compare the shipped mix against the catalog it draws from — they track closely, so the digest is balanced relative to its shelf. Three buckets appear because left and right fold into lean-left and lean-right here; the catalog does hold Left-rated outlets. What it holds none of is far-left or far-right, and that is a curation choice, not a quality law — plenty of strongly-slanted outlets report accurately.

Geographic origin

source vantage, not story location
5.3Effective regionsof 7 · geo-HHI 0.19EuropeTop region27% of stories

Region reflects each source's vantage point, not where the story happened. The catalog skews Western — true story-geography would need per-story geo-tagging.
