Article count is not confirmation count. Wire rewrites and same-outlet follow-ups inflate totals. Prefer distinct publishers and primary links on each story page.

Headline framing

Vocabulary fingerprints · not a political endorsement

Gizmodo characterizes Amazon's removal of Meta's AI agent as an aggressive 'hammer' blow, implying punitive intent. In contrast, the center-leaning source describes the same event as a neutral blocking action on a retail site. The divergence highlights how left-leaning tech media may frame corporate competition as conflict, while neutral sources focus on the functional outcome.
