Most Influential

Entities ranked by network reach across the news graph — how many other people, organizations, and places they appear alongside.

Influence is computed from the entity co-mention graph (Neo4j). Score = 2 × distinct connections + 0.5 × weighted co-mention sum + 1 × topics mentioned.
