Twinkies lead The Wall Street Journal's twelve-upload week

A week-old snack-cake business story is still drawing more daily views than anything newer, with a Guitar Center rescue running second.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

How Twinkies Became a $5 Billion ProblemHow Twinkies Became a $5 Billion Problem

Twinkies win the week. "How Twinkies Became a $5 Billion Problem" went up on the first day of the stretch, has already passed a million views, and is still the channel's busiest video by a comfortable margin.

Twelve videos followed it or kept it company, and the ones doing well share a shape: a familiar name with an odd problem attached. "How a Nuclear Engineer Is Saving Guitar Center | WSJ" sits second on daily pace. The cocaine speed boat story comes third and is still holding a good share of its opening speed. The Trump-Xi summit explainer opened just as fast, then went almost quiet within days.

Across the whole channel, the pace looks steady, right at its usual level, with subscribers holding still. Among news broadcasters of its size, The Wall Street Journal sits in the middle on subscribers. USA TODAY and News24 are drawing more daily views, and News Central is having a much calmer run. The Journal's steadiest draw remains the business story with a twist.
