How these numbers are computed

Source: published news articles from Nevada outlets, matched to the bar roll by name and context. Only high-confidence matches count here; medium-confidence matches appear on individual profiles but not in this ranking, and ambiguous matches are never shown.

"Articles" counts distinct articles; "Mentions" counts every matched passage, so one article can contribute several mentions. Dates are the article's publication date. Being named in the news is not an indication of wrongdoing or of distinction.
