This feels classist. The new York times is a piece of shit.
A LOT of these sources are. The majority, even.
It would be cool to have this kind of data for stuff in my country.
Telemundo and Univision are sadly filled with sensational news casts. And also the Hispanic population is not well represented in college because we’re too dam poor to pay for higher education.
I can’t believe USA Today is so high. Wasn’t it’s whole schtick being ultra simplified?
Well, it’s still below average.
The top is more eloquent regime garbage.
But still regime garbage.I mean, The Atlantic might as well come with “CIA Certified” stamped on the cover. NPR is just a fleshy public-sector skin suit hiding sixteen different corporate lobbyists. The Guardian is JK Rowling Approved, even if it has historically been decent on foreign policy. The NYT is just lying to you, to your face, over and over, forever.
Really bleak to see what the American media stands for now that the mask has fallen all the way off. I’m a little sad that The Economist didn’t make their cut, because it’s the subject of my favorite Lenin quote.
What was the quote?
The Economist, a journal that speaks for the British millionaires
As part of a critique of the paper’s attitude towards war (specifically, The Great War aka WW1)

Wow… You are so damn smart!
Where exactly do you get your news from ?
The Fox News figure is definitely inflated
FOX News is the network of, by, and for grumpy old white people.
Plenty of them have degrees. Quite a few even have advanced degrees.
I saw on a post recently here that discussed the median age of viewers for CNN, FOX, NBC was 68, 69, 70 with the figures rising year after year. I really expected those to be lower, but as someone who doesn’t consume media that way, I guess I underestimated just how many people don’t consume media that way.
Makes sense considering the news sources near the top are the same college students would have to cite on occasion for a research paper or whatever. Why not go back to the same old well to get their news after graduating?
Statistical proof of what I already knew - conservatives are ignorant idiots.
The Atlantic still sucks
I’d be curious to know why, since “sucks” didn’t give me quite enough context, oddly enough.
I could reply with a mess of puffery and lavish language or a ton of nuanced arguments and maybe that – if you’re an Atlantic devotee – might persuade you.
But I think the easiest way to get you to understand my opinion is to encourage you to read it – particularly their opinion pieces – and see for yourself.
(Subscribe via RSS because they likely aren’t tracking that and don’t seem to have a clue that you can use it to get most of their articles ad-free without paying.)
Fair enough. I’ve read their articles over the years here and there whenever I happen to come across them, though I don’t recall ever looking at their opinion pieces. Great tip about the RSS backdoor!
Aww. No Twitter. But according to Musk and his dickriders, “We’re the media now”.
NPR, Democracy now, Al Jazeera and local public radio are my jam. Why is Fox missing?
WDYM why is Fox missing? Fox News is 4th from the bottom.
newsmax has a higher amount og college funny enough.
Indeed! I don’t know much at all about American networks, I hadn’t even heard of Newsmax before this post.
Never mind lol
I have met some questionable American academics who enjoyed the Joe Rogan Experience, which has puzzled me for a while. The fact that it’s less popular among the college educated than Fox News, Tucker Carlson Network and Breitbart certainly helps reinforce my world view a bit.
useful in drawing men towards conservativism, speaks about conspiracies.
Why the fuck is the Joe Rogan Experience even being given credibility as a “news source?”
I’m surprised PBS and NPR have such a disparity in their audience. PBS is close to average which is good and makes sense as a public service.
Why does NPR skew so much higher towards college grads?
NPR has very little enterainment. PBS and such has a bit more to capture a wider audience. I don’t think its so much that the college educated don’t watch pbs as much as more non college educated watch pbs and don’t listen to npr. These are percentages of the audiences. Given that I catch npr all the time as I only seek elswhere on the radio when in the car if I just don’t like whats on npr but I sorta got to go outa my way to catch npr. Also you have to catch or stream later like the new hour but news on the radio is throughout the day every day including rebroadcast of bbc.
NPR member stations can vary pretty significantly on programming depending on your locality. One of the few things they have to have are the top of the hour six minute news segments.
I think NPR touches on higher level topics, as well as interviews with professionals in fields that the average person might not have an interest in
