A world of starting points
Start with a regional desk, search for a place, browse a subject or search the news directly. Regional desks bring together recent news, tracked countries and cataloged sources so you can explore a story in its wider setting.
Explore the news map
The world news map connects recent coverage to cities identified by recorded location information. Select a marker to explore a city, zoom into grouped locations, or use the city list to open the same destinations.
Follow subjects and coverage threads
Discovery views show recent article activity, the variety of recorded publisher domains and changes from the preceding day. Coverage threads group reporting by recorded country and subject, while related-coverage pages help you follow a reference into further reporting.
The ranking method and snapshot window are published with the discovery views. Explore trending coverage or open coverage threads.
News with a path to the publisher
PowerHourNews brings together news references from across the SpiderTaz Network. Each news card identifies the available publisher information and links to the original article. Headlines and excerpts help you decide what to read; the complete story belongs with its publisher.
Places give stories context
A place name in a headline does not necessarily make a story local to that place. Country and city views use recorded location information to organize coverage. Regional desks identify their tracked countries, and topic views organize reporting by its recorded subject.
Know the source
The source library includes news organizations, news agencies, public-service media, official government information and international organizations. Source profiles distinguish these roles and record available information about coverage, languages, ownership, funding and institutional relationships.
Official statements represent their issuing body. Listing a source does not endorse its views. A verified record means its documentation has been checked; it is not a guarantee that every article is accurate or impartial.
Evidence and corrections
Unconfirmed source details remain marked as unknown or needing review. Reporting and source information can change, so check the publication date, the original article and supporting evidence before relying on a claim.
To report an incorrect listing, broken link, attribution concern or privacy issue, contact SpiderTaz with the PowerHourNews page address, the item concerned and supporting information. Do not send confidential documents through a public search field.
Respect for original work
Publishers and other rights holders retain their rights to articles, images, video, audio and logos. A listing or link does not grant permission to reproduce that material. Consult the original publisher for licensing and reuse.
Coverage that keeps growing
PowerHourNews is an expanding discovery platform. Its regional desks, countries and source records reflect currently tracked coverage. Article counts describe the matching inventory, not the importance of a place or the amount of reporting worldwide. An empty result does not mean nothing happened.
