Good day!
Normally we handpick newsletter issues by independent writers that provide new or unique perspectives... but our lead researcher/writer is on maternity leave so we are exploring newsletter content that isn't as time-intensive, like trending terms and some specifically-themed newsletters.
Thanks for sticking with us until our normal programming resumes! And sorry our regular weekly cadence has been a bit irregular lately.
(And If someone forwarded you this and you'd like to subscribe, you can do that here -- thanks!)
Here's what's trending this week in newsletters...enjoy!
This week over 8000 issues came in…
Of the top words, several relate to Colin Powell's passing this week.
(Click on any of the terms to learn more about them and read newsletter issues they're in)
Newly Emerging Terms
- haiti... related to Haitian gang who kidnapped American missionaries
- firefighters... various: from firefighters in NYC being required to get vaccinated, to firefighters putting out regular fires, and more...
- lonely... seemingly random and unrelated
Biggest Increase in Usage from Previous Week
- powell (>550%) as in Colin Powel who died of Covid complications this week
- colin (>250%)... see above
- wnba (~200%)... the Chicago Sky won the WNBA championship
- provision (>150%)... related to provisions being debated in Congress
- refusing (>150%)... related to Steve Bannon being held in contempt for refusing to comply with the subpoena
- dune (>150%)... as in the new science fiction movie
Most Used Terms
"Covid "jumped back on the list this week... and both "experience" and "team" fell back off.
Note that these "Most Used" terms tend to be used very broadly, in lots of contexts... vs. the other "Emerging" and "Biggest Usage Increase" terms which are, as you can tell, quite narrow and likely more meaningful/interesting.
