Implication

Quantitative content analysis reveals a predominance of official over unofficial sources in international news coverage, suggesting limited viewpoint diversity during conflict reporting.

Key Points

Official sources predominated over unofficial voices in crisis reporting, reducing representational diversity across both Western and non-Western publications.
Quantitative content analysis of n = 230 articles revealed skewed source attribution, marked by prominent pro-Ukrainian citations and minimal pro-Russian perspectives.
Narrative convergence across major outlets may compromise news objectivity, demonstrating how source selection narrows the range of public viewpoints during warfare.
