  • gdelt_search_articles

    Search the last 3 months of global news coverage (65+ languages) using the GDELT DOC API. Fetches up to 250 articles with URL, title, source domain, language, country, publication date, and social image URL, and returns every fetched article inside the requested window. Query su…

  • gdelt_get_coverage_timeline

    Retrieve a time series showing when news coverage of a topic spiked, or how average tone shifted over time. Use mode "volume" for normalized coverage intensity (% of all global coverage per timestep). Use "volume_raw" for distinct matching-article counts per timestep and norm, t…

  • gdelt_get_tone_distribution

    Get the tonal distribution of articles matching a query as a histogram (bins approximately -30 to +30). Unlike a single average tone score, the histogram reveals whether coverage is uniformly negative, bimodal (some articles extremely positive and some extremely negative), or cl…

  • gdelt_get_coverage_breakdown

    Break down news coverage volume over time by source language or source country, returning a multi-series time series (one series per language or country). Shows which countries or languages drove early vs. late coverage — useful for tracing how a story propagated geographically…

  • gdelt_search_themes

    Find GDELT Global Knowledge Graph (GKG) theme identifiers for the theme: operator that gdelt_search_articles, gdelt_get_coverage_timeline, gdelt_get_tone_distribution, and gdelt_get_coverage_breakdown accept in query. Searches the identifiers in the GDELT GKG theme lookup, which…

  • gdelt_search_tv

    Search television news closed captions for spoken mentions of a query. Returns a bounded, paged per-station time series showing airtime devoted to the topic — 500 points by default, up to 20,000 per page. Each series carries GDELT's display name for the station and, when that na…

  • gdelt_get_tv_breakdown

    Rank TV stations or shows mentioning a query. Station values are percentages of each station’s monitored airtime, or raw matching 15-second clip counts with normalize=false. Show values always represent percentages of matching clips, even with normalize=false. Labels are preserv…

  • gdelt_get_tv_clips

    Retrieve the top matching TV news clips for a query from the Internet Archive's Television News Archive: returns every fetched in-window clip, up to 3,000. Each clip includes show name, the station's display name — with its station ID when that name resolves to one — air timesta…

  • gdelt_get_tv_context

    Get the top co-occurring words and phrases from TV news clips matching a query — the vocabulary framing a topic on television. Returns the most frequent non-stopword terms with relative frequency scores (0–100, where 100 = the query term itself). Terms and scores come from GDELT…

  • gdelt_list_tv_stations

    List the television stations available for TV search with their market, network, monitoring start date, and monitoring end date — every station by default, or only those matching the optional stations, network, and market filters (each an exact, case-insensitive match; combined…
