Provisional: Headline search (Google News and Bing News, 4 query variants per outlet, all 13 outlets searched, none unchecked), plus direct AP and Reuters checks because Al Jazeera's story is bylined "By AFP, AP and Reuters". AP (opened; Nov. 3 and Nov. 4 stories naming Listyo) and The Washington Post (opened; AP story by Niniek Karmini, Nov. 4) are confirmed. Reuters ("Indonesia president sacks his chief of staff for alleged wiretapping", Nov. 4) blocked our fetch and Bloomberg's page returned not found, so both are counted from search headlines with dates unverified. The other 17 candidates were unrelated; this may change on recheck.
