The Brennan Center's top 10 nearest neighbors form a tight, undifferentiated cluster of political journalists and news outlets — no single neighbor pulls away from the pack.
The shape is flat: scores run from 0.98 down to 0.97 across all ten, a band of less than two percentage points. Six of the ten neighbors are journalists by subcategory: Kyle Griffin (0.98), Chris Hayes (0.98), David Corn (0.97), Christiane Amanpour (0.97), and Judd Legum (0.97) among them. Three are news publishers: Politico (0.97), The Daily Beast (0.97), and The Hill (0.97). The remaining two are a politician — David Axelrod (0.97) — and a professional — Chelsea Clinton (0.97). No other non-profit appears in the top 10, and the Brennan Center's own subcategory (Non-Profit) is absent from the neighbor set entirely.
The composition is consistent: this is an audience shaped almost entirely by political journalism and political media consumption, with no standout anchor and no meaningful outlier pulling in a different direction.
