How to read this

The stream below stacks each month's coverage by the lens you choose: Tone (how the press frames it — 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 47% announcement-stage and mostly neutral — but promotional framing is rising, now 12%, much of it on the Launch · Valve storyline.
