FTC

795 articles – decelerating
The Federal Trade Commission's 792-article news footprint peaked at 42 articles in Q3 2023, reflecting Lina Khan's aggressive enforcement posture against Big Tech. Coverage has since contracted sharply from 25 articles in Q2 2025 to just 2 in Q1 2026, tracking a shift from activist antitrust to regulatory uncertainty. The corpus reveals distinct enforcement targets: Facebook and Meta dominate early years, followed by Amazon and Google challenges peaking in 2022-2023. The FTC's media presence correlates strongly with Facebook, Amazon, and Google, with Meta becoming the primary focus post-rebrand. Recent silence suggests either enforcement stasis or a transition period following political changes. The agency's coverage arc reflects broader swings in tech regulation—from laissez-faire (2014-2019) to enforcement surge (2021-2023) to current ambiguity.

FTC has appeared in 795 articles since 2005-12. Coverage peaked in 2025Q2 with 25 articles. Frequently mentioned alongside Facebook, The Federal Trade Commission, Google, Amazon.
