One San Francisco news clip is moving faster than the station's entire channel usually does in a day.

Home intruder in San Francisco shot by Vietnam War veteran
A new report on the KPIX channel usually settles in quietly, collecting a few thousand views on its first day. "Home intruder in San Francisco shot by Vietnam War veteran" did not follow that pattern. It opened at roughly three hundred times the usual first-day pace.
The contrast gets sharper next to the channel as a whole. On a normal day, everything KPIX has ever posted, back catalog included, draws a combined audience that is several times smaller than the pace this single clip is keeping right now.
KPIX is the CBS-owned station serving the Bay Area on channel 5, and its channel is built on local reports like this one. A day-old story from a San Francisco home is, for the moment, the busiest thing it has.
