Methodology

This is YouTube’s “most popular” chart for the News & Politics category in the United States (region US), top 50 videos. Category charts are US-only for now.

Order is YouTube’s own “most popular” chart, fetched once a day through the official YouTube Data API. YTDetective doesn’t re-rank it; sorting by views, likes or comments only re-orders the same list in your browser. Like and comment counts are blank when a creator hides them.

Categories come from the category each creator assigned to the video. Trending is a snapshot of one moment, not a measure of a video’s lifetime performance.
