Two neighbors pull nearly equal weight at the top of Sarah Spain's similarity graph, and they point in different directions. Mina Kimes (0.90) and Katie Nolan (0.90) sit within three thousandths of each other — a genuine two-peak structure where the audience bridges a fellow sports journalist and a TV personality, rather than consolidating around one type.
Below that pair, the top 10 fractures into something less expected. The White House (0.87) and President of the United States (0.86) are the third and fifth closest neighbors, flanking soccer athlete Taylor Twellman (0.87) at fourth. Deadspin (0.86), First Lady of the United States (0.85), Men in Blazers (0.85), Tim Howard (0.84), and U.S. Soccer WNT (0.84) round out the set. By subcategory, the top 10 spans journalists (Kimes), TV personalities (Nolan), government officials (POTUS, FLOTUS), athletes (Twellman, Howard), a government organization (White House), a magazine (Deadspin), a podcast (Men in Blazers), and a sports team (USWNT) — a cross-kind spread with no single subcategory dominating beyond the two-peak leaders. The soccer thread running through Twellman, Howard, Men in Blazers, and USWNT is the clearest secondary cluster, but the government accounts sit just as high in the rankings.
The shape here is an audience that simultaneously tracks sports media voices and civic/political accounts — two distinct neighborhoods held together by the same underlying audience composition.
