The life of a story
No editor picks what trends, and neither do clicks. Every 10 minutes, Polvio groups the articles about the same story and applies the same rules to every one. Here they are.
At least 8 articles from at least 3 different sources cover the same story within 12 hours. That puts it on the agenda.
It gets a title and a brief in your language. While the coverage continues, the source and article counts update every 10 minutes.
After 45 minutes with no new article, it drops off the agenda. It moves to the past, still one pull away, stamped with how long it stayed.
