TRANSCRIPT:

ENTEN: "Crime and abortion, because both of those, the placement on that chart was surprising to me, so I was interested, what are people searching for on Google? What is it that comes to their minds? So this is Google searches, crime vs. abortion, the percentage among those who searched for either. Look around the time that Roe v. Wade was overturned in June, crime was just at 30% of all the searches that people were searching between crime and abortion. Abortion was at 70%. In May, again, abortion higher than crime, in July it was basically tied, abortion slightly higher than crime, but look now in September, crime 71% to just 29% for abortion. That is basically back to the pre-Roe v. Wade overturning sort of baseline, where we were back in April when crime was making up 74% of the searches versus abortion at just 26%."
