**so when you look up top searches of the day **(5-16) you get a list and it's sports and Hollywood garbage and #17 is "‪‪Democratic National Committee‬, ‪WikiLeaks‬‬" but when you click on that you see a sort of sub-topics breaking it down. "Seth Rich" query is a score of 100 and "DNC" is a score of 2 (!)

So why isn't the headline "Seth Rich" even if they place it way down on the list?

And on the DNC sub-page at the top they don't list the FOX News story that took off ... they headline their disinfo artilces ....

typical disinfo article featured at the top - as if this has traffic today -

Why would you think the Fox article should be listed? It seems like recent stories are shown?

I thought it was the day's total ...

and the FOX story came out in the morning and was all over the globe when wikileaks tweeted it and very widely refenced in the subsquent blog posts etc. all day long.

Google News will often show highly cited articles but not Google trends.
