Four sports columns top the list for being the most read during 2025. Some are carry overs from 2024. One column has had interest for roughly 25 years. POV columns take three positions and one Video Beat column. On the bubble are four columns have gained tremendous interest. All have the potential to eventually rank in the All-time category.

SURPRISE!

What we discovered regarding what stories were most read on our site in 2025 was the dated material that popped up. Our feature on Dr. Beat Richner who gave free health to Cambodia children is one of our most reads stories of all time. It ranks in the TOP 3 with Jim Murray and Racist Radio. The interest in the Murray story has fizzled away in the past few years but Richner's remain strong.

Interest appears to be aligned with the date of their birth or passing or something else that relates to their contributions. That theory applies to Muhammad Ali who repeatedly has surfaced over the years that correlates with the interest in our story.

Richner ranks 2nd of all time while Ali has notched 7th place. What was most surprising was what took the top position. That honor goes to NR TOP 10 of MAY 2023 part 2 titled BIG CHANGES BEING MADE. That was the only NR TOP 10 ratings that we made into two separate columns.

Part 1 was contained rankings 6 thru 10 and Part 2 was 1 thru 5. This is the only TOP 10 column that made the rankings. The reason why remains a mystery. Check it out for yourself and see if you can solve the mystery.

More relevant to 2025 are the stories that are relevant to Israel's invasion of Gaza/Palestine and the reprehensible US government. That relates to our Video Beat column - GAZA JOURNALISTS UNDER FIRE ranked 5th and AMERICA'S SLIPPERY SLOPE 8th.

Four sports stories were the most popular. They include MESSI MAGIC 3rd, TRADE LUKA DONCIC! WHY!!! 4th, previously mentioned Muhammad ALI THE GREATEST 7th and MICHAEL JORDAN'S TOUGHEST OPPONENT 10th.

THE FEEBLE MIND of JOE BIDEN, ranked 6th was our take on the condition of the former president several months before the main stream news media questioned his mental capacities.

The TRUMP HARRIS DEBATE, TOO MUCH TALK ABOUT NOTHING story ranks 9th. This story continues to build interest. We believe it has something to do with her making appearances and being questioned abut her having any interest in running against Trump in the next US presidential election.

Since we compute with a weighted score, we noticed that some of our fast-moving stories to be ranked seem to fade away but return a year later stronger with a more consistent interest. We can only surmise that the word of mouth is the primary factor.

On notice are some columns that are four receiving a lot of attention during the last half of the year. In some cases, three stand out as being one of our most read of all time.

The current most read of all time, covering 25 years or more include Dr Beat, Racist Radio and Jim Murray. The new most read attention getters are The Williams Family, Bill Walton, Hall of Fame and Best All time Interviews. With a year of technical difficulties outside of our internal performs plaguing our 2025 we hope all goes smoothly for the coming 2026 year.
