One figure, 33 outlets: how a police data point became a media wave
The subject is confused or misunderstood behavior, but the real MOZOM question here is in the distribution. Within a short time, the same core report appeared on national news sites, regional titles, local referrals, trade media and aggregators: more than 96,000 police reports in six months, 17 percent more than last year. That's not just an isolated news item. It is a visible news cluster. The question is therefore not only what the police counted, but especially how such a figure is presented almost everywhere at the same time.
