News Graph
The News Graph is an interactive, hourly-updating visualization of the world's news cycle: over 150,000 news stories from thousands of outlets, clustered by topic and colored by category. Explore what the global press is covering right now, drill into any topic to see the stories driving it, and find which outlets are leading coverage of each subject. Built by JournoFinder, the world's most advanced PR media database.
Each story on the map links through to the original article. The graph refreshes every hour, so it always reflects the current state of the news cycle. Use the topic, outlet, and category filters to explore who is covering what across the global media landscape.
Something went wrong fetching the latest news snapshot. It usually comes straight back.
Every hour, JournoFinder clusters the stories moving through the English-language press into one readable map. Zoom to explore the whole cycle, click any cluster to read the stories behind a topic, and use the category colors to see what's breaking, what's dominating, and who's covering it.
The News Graph is built by JournoFinder, the world's most advanced media database for PR professionals. We help PR and comms teams find the right journalists for a story and build pitch-ready media lists in minutes. This map is a free, live window into the news cycle those journalists are covering.
Stories are continuously ingested from Google News across its US and UK editions, spanning thousands of outlets and refreshed around the clock. Each headline is read by an AI model and grouped with related stories into topics.
Every hour. The map is rebuilt from scratch on each run, so it always reflects the current state of the news cycle rather than a frozen snapshot.
Each headline is converted into a numerical “fingerprint” (an embedding) that captures its meaning. Stories with similar fingerprints are grouped together, laid out so related topics sit near each other, and each cluster is named automatically. No human curates the topics.
The map focuses on outlets whose readership is primarily in the English-speaking world (the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Ireland and New Zealand), so it reflects the anglophone news cycle rather than being dominated by any single foreign market.
The map shows the strongest clusters from the last few days. Very fresh or one-off stories may not have formed a cluster yet, and since it rebuilds hourly the picture is always shifting.
No. It's a live sample of what Google News surfaces across its English-language editions, clustered by topic, built to show the shape of the cycle rather than to be a complete archive.
