The top 10 neighbors for Kurt Eichenwald form a dense, undifferentiated cluster — scores run from 0.99 down to 0.98 with no single neighbor pulling sharply ahead. The composition of that cluster is what defines the shape: journalists, politicians, government officials, academics, and professionals, all operating in the same political-media orbit.
Tallying the top 10 by subcategory: six are Journalists — Natasha Bertrand (0.99), Katy Tur (0.99), Philip Rucker (0.98), David Corn (0.98), David Frum (0.98), and Jim Sciutto (0.98) — sharing Eichenwald's own subcategory. The remaining four cross into adjacent kinds: Sally Yates (0.99) and James Comey (0.98) are Government Officials; Preet Bharara (0.98) is a Professional; and Molly Jong-Fast (0.99), the single highest-scoring neighbor, is an Author. The non-journalist entries are not outliers — their scores sit within two hundredths of the journalists — which signals that the audience pulling toward Eichenwald does not distinguish sharply between reporters, former law-enforcement figures, and political commentators.
The flat shape here reflects a tightly cohesive audience that circulates across a specific political-media ecosystem rather than concentrating on any one type of voice within it.
