Other topics have taken the top spot—so much is happening—but “Signalgate” remains an ongoing story with regular reporting, and will have a long tail.

The top issue of the 2016 presidential election, the one that changed Donald Trump from a TV loudmouth to a world historical figure, was information security. Hillary Clinton’s private email server and the mere possibility that classified information might have traversed it dominated media coverage and featured prominently in Trump’s attacks.
