Capitol Communicator wishes our readers, sponsors, advertisers and supporters a wonderful holiday. We will be taking a break for the holiday and return with our first newsletter of the year on January 5, 2023.

We took a look at the 20 top performing stories and were surprised that “emojis” seemed to be the most popular subject of the year other the ever-changing media landscape. Two of the top performing were emoji related. Here are the top 20 for 2022\. Cheers!
