blanket coverage

All-inclusive reporting scope

Blanket coverage is comprehensive protection or reporting that extends across an entire category without exceptions.

In insurance, a blanket policy covers all items of a certain type rather than listing each individually: The blanket coverage protects all equipment in the building.

In media, blanket coverage means saturating news programming with a single story: The networks provided blanket coverage of the election.
