MUNCIE, IN—Every year around this time we share Muncie Journal’s Top 10 most viewed stories of the year.  In 2019, an article about the polar vortex took the top spot. Amazingly, our most viewed story in 2021 was NOT about COVID-19. It was about the big fireworks display downtown.

You’ll find the Top 10 most viewed stories for 2022 below. Just scroll down this page to view the story and its ranking. Click on each story to read it as originally published.

Stories are ranked utilizing Google Analytics data measured from January 1, 2022 to December 8, 2022. We get millions of story views on MuncieJournal.com, so if a story appears on our Top Stories list for the year, its pretty much a given each one had a boatload of views.

 Below you can listen to Steve Lindell and I talk about this year’s Top Stories list, as broadcast live on WMUN 92.5FM/1340AM on December 6th. Bruce Munson also visits with a John Carlson story.
