Mildly Interesting

The right has more bots

Steven Crowder is a one trick pony

Change my mind

I cannot imagine a sane moment in my life were I'd be completely OK listening to Russell Brand's dog shit commentary for over an hour.

Damn putting that zionist h3 crap under left is not giving me much hope of any actual left being represented in the blue.

I get my news from right here. So if I am misinformed: It's y'all's fault! 😝

all the large ones are , as you guessed it funded by putin through his oligarch, through an LLC media company or series of other right wing groups. they are responsible for drawing men into incelism, and to conservatism.

THeo von, was orginally not so shilling, i first saw him an asian youtubers channel now turned maga, surprise! that ALSO hosted russian asset TULSI gabbard on thier show just before the election, luckily these asian Yutz destroyed thier old fanbase for mysogyny(decided to blame everything that caused thier declining channel on a single female employee(she was the sole catalyst after another gossipy asian chimed in) and by extension all the former women on thier channel) and incel. im guessing over pandemic he went right wing, although i always had a suspicion he was a trashy white guy that is right winger, even before the pandemic, but couldnt put my finger on it.

The source has other infographics in case you were more than mildly interested through no fault of your own. https://www.mediamatters.org/google/right-dominates-online-media-ecosystem-seeping-sports-comedy-and-other-supposedly

yeah, almost all the newspapers are owned by big nazi oligarchs

It's an interesting dataset, but I do think it's interesting that they're looking at followers versus viewers.

Looking just at YouTube, Joe Rogan has ~20 million YouTube subscribers, but his videos average 0.5 million to 1.3 million views.

I don't know much about the other services, but followers might be inflating their size. It is likely doing so evenly, so the left leaning bubbles should also be smaller.

In the article itself they did look at some of the views where right leaning viewership was nearly double left leaning viewership, so it is still notable, but the breakdown would be interesting.

TYT not a fan

Seems out of date. I think Peterson and Shapiro "fell off." Didn't know Trevor Noah was still doing stuff. Don't know who the fuck Russell Brand's audience is. I guess basing it off subscriber accounts biases it toward channels/influencers that have existed a long time, and many subscriptions may just be ignored or tied to inactive accounts. I agree the right dominates the online ecosystem, but different influencers dominate now.

Yes. Because educated individuals dont listen to talking heads.
