How big was the vote? #BrexitVote was hotter than #TakeYourDogToWorkDay.
Trying to sort out the impacts of the British vote, San Francisco’s Quid used software to analyze 1,578 news stories published in English globally between Wednesday and Friday, looking for words like “future” and “forward.”
(“Cluster” is also part of a phrase the world is using to describe Britain’s action, but that’s beside the point.) Besides obvious topics like the immediate financial risks and the impacts on law and business, smaller impacts included the pound hitting a 31-year low, and the responses of Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump and, of course, “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling.
The Daily Briefing is compiled from San Francisco Chronicle staff and news services.
