It's so annoying when people use that useless number to make a point. Journalists do it all the time.

- pdabbadabba 12y agoI agree that is's annoying when journalists do it to demonstrate that a topic is important/controversial/etc. But I'm not sure there's anything wrong with it when the point being made it literally (and only) about the number of times a specific piece of text appears on the Internet.
- DanBC 12y agoThe number is wrong so using it to make a point about the number of times a phrase appears on the Internet is sub-optimal.
