Man City's chairman statement leads Sky News by a distance
Four of the six most-watched uploads came back to the same football story, and the chairman's response is moving roughly six times faster than anything else on the channel.

Man City chairman releases a statement over financial charges
Sky News has just passed 5.8 billion lifetime views, and the fifteen videos it added this week leaned hard in one direction: Manchester City. The club's chairman responding to the financial charges went up on Saturday and is gathering views far faster than anything else on the channel. Around it sat fans having their say on the reported guilty verdicts and a Mornings segment on other Premier League clubs reportedly planning legal action.
The rest of the week was the broader news diet you would expect from a broadcaster. Pope Leo led Mass in Paris, world leaders spoke on day five of the UN General Assembly, and Andy Burnham arrived at the Labour conference promising that "life will get better". That last one is the second-quickest mover, a distant runner-up to the City statement. Just behind it is another sports-meets-politics story: the Republic of Ireland squad voting to play its Nations League match against Israel.
Among the news networks and broadcasters, Sky News sits fourth of nine by subscribers. Vox, NBC News and MS NOW sit above it, with VICE News only a whisker below.
