How do I filter news to Taiwan?

Pass country=TW on the search endpoint. The identifier is FIPS 10-4, not ISO 3166 — for Taiwan that is TW, where the ISO code is TW.

Does this cover articles published in Taiwan, or about it?

The country filter matches places the article is about. To filter by where the publisher is based, use publisher_country instead.

What coverage of Taiwan looks like

Coverage weighted toward semiconductors, cross-strait relations and regional security. A small market by volume that punches far above it for supply-chain intelligence.

The media landscape

A compact media market with disproportionate coverage of semiconductors, cross-strait relations and supply chains. Business titles carry the industry detail; the general press is dominated by domestic politics. The value here is concentration rather than breadth, so a narrow query outperforms a broad one.

Querying this market

Combine with the trade or science and technology signal to separate industry reporting from political coverage, which otherwise dominates.

Identifiers are FIPS 10-4, not ISO 3166 — why that matters.

What catches people out

Volume is modest and its value is concentrated: semiconductor supply-chain reporting here is more specific than anything available in English, and often earlier. Political coverage dominates an unfiltered query, so pair the country filter with a technology or trade signal when the industry reporting is what you want.

What this market is best for

Best for semiconductor supply chains, contract manufacturing and cross-strait security — a small stream carrying disproportionate value for anyone tracking electronics. Weakest across almost everything else. Query it narrowly and it repays the effort; query it broadly and politics swamps the result.
