There is opinion, and there is data. Sometimes humans can make sense of a confusing picture and see the truth within it, and other times there is more truth to be found in statistics. It is a simple fact that Commsrisk received 17 percent more visitors during 2019 than 2018, continuing the upward trend that has persisted every year of the website’s existence. However, it is impossible to explain how to write a popular article, although intuition and experience tell us which topics people care about. I have already shared my review of the most important news in 2019, but those stories did not always attract the most eyeballs. Here are the ten Commsrisk articles that had most readers during 2019.
