The top 10 splits cleanly into two clusters: Republican-aligned politicians and conservative-leaning journalists and media outlets — with no other Government Officials appearing in the set.
The political cluster leads the list. Karl Rove (0.94) and Carly Fiorina (0.93) sit at the top, followed by Liz Cheney (0.91) and Mitt Romney (0.89) — four Politicians in the top 10 by subcategory. The media cluster runs nearly as strong: Mary Katharine Ham (0.93), Byron York (0.90), and Kimberley Strassel (0.89) are all classified as Journalists, while Rasmussen Reports (0.93) and News Maker (0.91) represent Research Organizations and News Publishers respectively. Jenna Bush Hager (0.88), a TV Personality, rounds out the set as the one neighbor that doesn't fit neatly into either cluster. The scores across all ten are tightly compressed — from 0.94 down to 0.88 — which is consistent with the two-peak shape: two distinct neighborhoods, but both pulling hard.
What this reveals is an audience that moves fluidly between political figures and political media, treating both as part of the same information environment.
