The top 10 neighbors for John King form a tight, undifferentiated cluster — scores run from Dana Bash at 0.98 down to Jim Acosta at 0.97, a spread of less than two percentage points across all ten positions.
The shape is flat, and the composition tells the story plainly. Seven of the ten neighbors are fellow Journalists: Dana Bash (0.98), Jake Tapper (0.98), Manu Raju (0.97), Kristen Welker (0.97), Brianna Keilar (0.97), Chris Cillizza (0.97), and Jim Acosta (0.97). The remaining three are Politicians: David Axelrod (0.97), Paul Begala (0.97), and Susan Rice (0.97) — the last classified as a Government Official, not a Politician, but all three sit in the same political-operative orbit. No news publishers, no TV shows, and no non-journalist media entities appear in the top 10; the neighbor set is almost entirely individual journalists and political figures.
The near-total absence of cross-kind neighbors, combined with the compressed score range, indicates an audience that is densely concentrated within political journalism and its immediate adjacencies — an audience that follows the beat, not just the name.
