Man, there was some massive pro-Xbox propaganda just before NPD. Like this: Save Point | The Verge

Xbox One Is No Longer the Underdog

Yep, this too
It was also fairly substantial throughout the first half of last year leading up to E3. After X1 took the holidays in the US the way it did I remember a number of articles written saying the Xbox One was on a comeback. That was even while it lost the first 3 months of 2015. Then in May when the April NPD came out and X1 took that month, by a relatively small amount, pre-E3 articles had headers and subheaders like "Microsoft smells blood" or "Sony should be worried". Meanwhile, X1 was losing its dog globally and here we are watching PS4 regaining the US gap it had over X1 a year ago.
