The top 10 neighbors span seven distinct subcategories — athletes, blogs, TV channels, news publishers, musicians, authors, and TV personalities — with no single type dominating and no fellow journalist in the set.
The shape is flat: scores run from 0.98 down to 0.96, a band of less than two points across all ten positions. Rev. Al Sharpton leads at 0.98 (Spiritual Leaders), followed by Serena Williams at 0.97 (Athletes) and Tavis Smiley at 0.97 (TV Personalities). Venus Williams (0.96, Athletes) and Michael Eric Dyson (0.96, Authors) sit just behind them, alongside the Oprah Winfrey Network (0.96, TV Channels), Huffington Post Black Voices (0.96, News Publishers), Chuck D (0.96, Musicians and Bands), Bossip (0.96, Blogs), and soulPhoodie (0.96, Blogs). The mix cuts across celebrity, media, and publishing — athletes sit next to a spiritual leader, a musician next to a news outlet — with no subcategory claiming more than two slots. No other journalist appears in the top 10; the nearest fellow journalist in the full dataset sits outside this window entirely.
The flat, cross-kind spread indicates an audience whose composition is defined by something that cuts across entity types rather than by loyalty to any single format or figure.
