The "context" approach was the whole "Explainer" period that happened in journalism, most famously done by Vox (as another commenter mentioned)--but also many others.

What you end up getting is the approved narrative of "how things are" by the same class of people who all hobnob with each other.

Glad to see it's end. Look forward to what's next.

No, that’s not what I’m talking about. That’s presenting context in the same episodic format as news articles, and it only works to explain the thing that was published on that day, up to that point.
