Joint JRC and European Science-Media Hub report (JRC147828, EUR 40808) prepared for the European Parliament's STOA panel. Using text mining, it compares how quantum technologies are covered by mainstream news and by sources flagged for information manipulation with the topics and geography of scientific publications. Media coverage centres on US corporate breakthroughs and great-power competition, whereas publication and innovation data show a more varied landscape in which the EU plays a leading role.
