October 2006, WAWG Index – Down 29%

Month to Month Change

In this thirteenth survey of the web, The WAWG Index category group average was down by 28.6 percent from September 2006. Of the fourteen categories tracked, 9 were down, 4 were up, and 1 was unchanged. The cumulative change for the index is up 230 percent since October 2005.

The largest decrease for October, at 93%, was for “obsession with crime and punishment,” which was last months major increase at 1,648 percent. Note, this category is still 126 percent above August’s level. The largest increase was for reduced “labor power” at 50%. This may be due to recent rulings by the National Labor Relations Board to redefine who qualifies as a supervisor.
