The top 10 neighbors span politicians, activists, journalists, TV personalities, comedians, and a food-delivery brand — no single subcategory dominates, which is the defining structural fact about The Young Turks' audience shape.
The shape is broad. Cenk Uygur leads at 0.96, the only journalist in the top 10 and the strongest pull by a clear margin. Ana Kasparian, a TV personality, follows at 0.91, making the show's own on-air talent the two closest neighbors. After that, the cluster fans out across subcategories: Bernie Sanders (0.91) and Rep. Ilhan Omar (0.90) represent Politicians; NOH8 Campaign (0.92) represents Activism; Vice TV (0.91) is the lone TV Channel in the top 10. Grubhub at 0.90 is the only brand in the set — a cross-kind neighbor with no obvious thematic link to the others, notable precisely because it sits alongside politicians and activists at nearly the same similarity level. Margaret Cho (0.89) and Barack Obama (0.89) round out the top 10, adding Comedians and a second Politician. No other TV Shows — The Young Turks' own subcategory — appear in the top 10 at all. The neighbor set is a coalition of progressive political figures, civil-society organizations, and individual personalities rather than a cluster of peer media properties.
This audience shape reflects a constituency organized around political and social identity more than around media format or genre.
