Where the attention comes from

“Normal” is the median of the source’s previous 14 normal days for this topic. A source is above normal when its value is at least 30% over that level and stands out from its usual day-to-day variation (z ≥ 2); the share is the part of the hype score that source explains. “× normal” is left blank when the normal level is 0.
