tone_distribution

Pack: gdelt · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/gdelt/mcp

Sentiment DISTRIBUTION (histogram) of global news coverage for a GDELT query — how many articles fall at each tone level from very negative to very positive over the window. PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for “is coverage of X positive or negative”, “news sentiment breakdown / how polarized is reporting on X”. Complements timeline_tone (average over time) with the full spread. Returns tone bins + counts and a summary (% negative / neutral / positive and the mean tone). Same GDELT query language as search_articles.
