Which I'm not entirely convinced isn't just Google fudging those statistics, anyway. California doesn't even rank on the list shown. Are we to believe that if Alaska represents 100, that California represents less than 60? That nearly twice as many people in Alaska googled pizzagate than people in California?
Alaska has 700,000 citizens. California has 39 million.

There really isn't a reason for this article to be downvoated. Thanks shills for outing yourselves.
David Brock is still going down.

Page 2 of the slide show defines "overly googled" simply as "what each state googled more frequently than any other state". That's all it is.
You could find millions more examples by popping anything into google trends and then just looking at which state googled it the most.
The only thing the slide show is saying in regards to pizzagate, is that Alaska googled pizzagate more than any other state did, that's it.

It's editorialized that it's "over-googled."
What they should have said was "the most googled."
Yes, it matters that Pizzagate is one of the most Google terms this year, especially considered that it didn't get exposed until November.
