trend-explainer
Explain why something is blowing up: a trending topic, a viral claim, a name suddenly everywhere, 'why is everyone suddenly on about X', and whether the wave is real: confirmed vs speculation vs manufactured hype. Use for 'what is going on with', 'is this actually big or just my feed/circle', 'why is this everywhere', and any wave noticed on one platform that needs testing against the rest.
