The top 10 neighbors for Planned Parenthood span five distinct subcategories — activism, non-profits, journalists, podcasts and radio, and a book publisher — with scores compressed into a narrow band from 0.99 down to 0.98, the defining signature of a flat shape.
Planned Parenthood Action leads at 0.99, the only Activism-subcategory entry in the top 10. Two fellow Non-Profits follow closely: the American Civil Liberties Union at 0.99 and ProPublica at 0.98. Journalists account for two more slots — Ken Klippenstein at 0.98 and Jamelle Bouie at 0.98 — while Podcasts and Radio place twice with This American Life at 0.98 and Radiolab at 0.98. Vox (News Publishers, 0.98) and Timothy McSweeney (Book Publishers, 0.98) round out the set alongside Ira Glass (Journalists, 0.98). No single neighbor pulls away from the pack; the spread across the top 10 is less than two hundredths of a point.
The cross-kind composition is the real finding here. Planned Parenthood is a Non-Profit, yet only two of its ten nearest neighbors share that subcategory. The rest are journalists, public-radio programs, a news publisher, and a literary press — a cluster that reads less like an advocacy orbit and more like the media diet of a civically engaged, public-radio-adjacent audience.
The flat shape and tight score band indicate that this audience is not uniquely tethered to any single adjacent entity; it overlaps broadly and evenly across a specific slice of left-leaning journalism and public media.
