You can view and examine the news coverage described by a chart widget. You have the option to click on a data point in the chart itself and filter by date range to see granular information for a particular period of time or get a more holistic view of the entire date range of the chart widget by looking at the chart's Detail View.

To Access the Detailed List, View for a Search Name:

1. Click in the Legend of the chart widget. If the chart has a multi-series legend (more than one metric is displayed), select the series or metric for which you want to see coverage. Alternatively, you can click on any data point in the widget for articles from a specific Publication Date for all included searches.

2. When the news detail view opens, you will find each article listed by row with data for each article in columns. The columns of data contain the following information:

• The mention contains the headline and first lines of the article content. Click on the Add tag button to tag the article.
• Outlet names the publication in which the article or mention appeared. Click on the outlet name to open the outlet mini card to perform research and list management.
• Author information provides byline information. NOTE: We do not always receive byline information as part of the monitoring process. Click on the author's name to open the outlet mini card to perform research and list management.
• Publication Date of the article.
• Shares include the number of shares of the article on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and Reddit.
• Article Impactshows the impact score of the article as low, medium, or high. 
  • Articles added to My Coverage before January 25, 2021: Cision's Article Impact is a blended metric that allows you to balance the readership, social amplification, and sentiment of an article into a single, sortable measurement.  Social amplification has the most weight, followed by readership, with the intensity of the sentiment being the smallest factor. 
    • What do we mean by the intensity of sentiment? Both positive and negative articles can be a high impact. We look at how intense this positive or negative sentiment is and factor that into the Article's Impact. Article Impact is not on a set scale (0-100, for example), and because it varies with every article's unique combination of values, we don't have hard numbers for readership or social that we can say will make an article "high impact" or "low impact"
  • Articles added to My Coverage after January 25, 2021: Cision's Article Impact score gives you an 'at a glance' indicator of an article's significance by blending several different metrics (readership, social amplification, domain authority, and sentiment) into one easily sortable value. Using proprietary technology and algorithms, Cision uses the above metrics and weighs them based on the intensity to identify high, medium, and low-impact articles across all article types. 
    • Article Impact is not on a set scale (0-100, for example), and because it varies with every article's unique combination of values, we don't have hard numbers for metrics that we can say will make an article "high impact" or "low impact." Instead, we look at the intensity and possible impact of each matric to give an article a score.  
      • What do we mean by the intensity of sentiment? Both positive and negative articles can be a high impact. We look at how intense this positive or negative sentiment is and factor that into the Article's Impact. 
• The sentiment uses keywords and phrases in the article to determine if the tone is positive, negative, or neutral.

3. As you hover over each article, you will see options appear on the right-hand side, allowing you to do the following: Apply Tags (tag icon), View the Full Article (diagonal arrow icon), Delete the Mention(article) from the Chart Data (trash icon),  or Share the Article (Ellipses). You can also select multiple articles to perform these activities by checking the box on the left in the Mention column for the articles you'd like to include.

4. Click on the magnifying glass icon to Search for keywords. 

5.  Click on the Ellipses button in the upper-right of the news detail view to export the data into Excel (.CSV, .SCSV, .XLS, .XLSX), Add/Remove column metrics or Add an Article.

All articles with the same body, same headline, and originating from different outlets will be grouped together. 

1. The article with the most recent publication date/time will act as the primary article in the group in the Listing Page. 
2. To see all articles in the syndicated group, click on the primary article.

In the example below, you will see there are 3 Total Mentions, but only two articles are listed because the first article is found in two publications.
