/* The newsroom ticker is the signature motion of this section and it is
   driven purely by CSS (the animation + @keyframes above) — no JS runs it,
   so it works even if scripts fail or load late. By design it keeps
   scrolling even when the user's device has animations turned off
   (prefers-reduced-motion), so the panel never appears frozen. */
