Methodology
The stories that make up the Yahoo 100 ranking come from two different places. Some are drawn from the thousands of articles that are published across Yahoo each day, while others are based on social videos trending across Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. The stories are enhanced by the perspectives, judgements, and human personalities of the writers and editors of the Yahoo newsroom.
To rank the storylines, we combine internal Yahoo data on article traffic and search trends with "lift" metrics from social media. Then we use a large language model to help write the descriptions that help you make sense of it all.
