Big movers: none of 5 or more ranks. chatgpt 9 to 8. clay matthews 10 to 9.
Drop-offs: singer (was 8).
Nine of 10 names repeat. The only swap is a television-announcer firing replacing a generic music query.
What today's Google Trends searches reveal
The Clancy mistrial still sets the search agenda a full day after the hung jury, now as a legal-definition query rather than the defendant's name. Obituaries and hospital notes (carla jeffery, gloria steinem, lionel richie, erin piacenti) still fill ranks 2 through 5.
jim thornton is the only true news insertion. Sony's September 4 statement is the trigger; the board just caught it on Sunday.
DWTS and tropical storm edouard are calendar fixtures, not new spikes. The useful growth number is the mistrial query's 7-day jump from 3.0 to 100.0 through September 5.
