What different parts of the world single out

From the articles' texts: the share of each part of the world's texts that say it (a reprint of one text counts once). Only differences chance does not explain are shown.

  • «In Ridley’s classic sci-fi horror film ”Alien” (1979), Skerritt played Dallas, the captain of the Nostromo, and was first billed, ahead of Sigourney Weaver; he had originally turned down the part when the project had a low budget and no director attached.»

Headlines are grouped into events automatically, by meaning: an event gathers different outlets' news about the same thing. We claim nothing — we only show who wrote what and when. “More” and “less than usual” compare with how much this part of the world usually writes about events many others cover.
