Here are the top Houston media stories of 2018 by page views on mikemcguff.com. So that means you decided this list by clicking on these posts the most throughout the year.
Now these posts are only from 2018. I have some other posts and pages that show up in my top 10 posts for the year, but were not written in 2018, so I throw those out - like my Houston news headlines page. Another post, this one from 2016, that showed up in '18 is the 93Q Morning Zoo's Erica Rico and Tim Tuttle wedding post.
