Very interesting data, HUGE decline in right-wing media consumption and traffic. [View all] kpete Mar 27 OP

They're all dead. Hugin Mar 27 #1

The majority of right-wing viewers were always one foot in the grave anyway. Crowman2009 Mar 27 #12

Sure, but they raised children. Children never born racists. Highest indicator for racism is having racist parents. nt Bernardo de La Paz Mar 27 #20

That's unless said children grow up, leave the house, and never talk to their parents ever again. Crowman2009 Mar 27 #23

And some of us are raised by racist parents, but.... ShazzieB Mar 27 #58

And we're grateful for each and every one! . . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Mar 27 #60

That was the case with my sister and me. ChazInAz Mar 28 #71

My mother, for example. Aristus Mar 28 #82

I was scrolling down to say they were sick of MAGA shit, but then realized your post was probably more accurate. TheBlackAdder Mar 27 #14

Or in prison, maybe they don't allow them to listen to that garbage. Bev54 Mar 27 #29

Actually, every prison I know of blasts fux nooz 24/7. The prisoners are programmed to hate "liberals". BComplex Mar 28 #78

Can't say I dispute this, I have never been inside a prison for any reason. It just seems to me that Bev54 Mar 28 #83

I totally agree! It definitely WOULD be in the best interest of a prison NOT to further indoctrinate BComplex Mar 28 #84

Indeed, COVID has wiped out hundreds of thousands of them Wednesdays Mar 27 #54

Some might be in prison soldierant Mar 28 #65

K&R! Very interesting data indeed jmbar2 Mar 27 #2

Stats might be misleading. Reich wing audiences are volatile now; many say Fox is too liberal Bernardo de La Paz Mar 27 #31

Also have noticed more MSM articles than in the past jmbar2 Mar 27 #34

And a science poster or two. Plus enormous number of "my body did something; how're the kids" posts Bernardo de La Paz Mar 27 #38

Less Trump signs Owens Mar 28 #76

Good to hear! jmbar2 Mar 28 #80

Russian amplifiers diverted to catapult their own propaganda? tanyev Mar 27 #3

My thought as well Clash City Rocker Mar 28 #77

They're going to need dweller Mar 27 #4

encouraging....perhaps the dam is starting to break. SalamanderSleeps Mar 27 #5

To me this suggests that the bulk of the traffic was bots drray23 Mar 27 #6

Good point PatSeg Mar 27 #19

Yep, bet it was tons of bots. machoneman Mar 27 #30

I thought you were right NJCher Mar 27 #40

There might be a down trend drray23 Mar 27 #44

Especially if Biden and the shitbag are so close in polling. Probatim Mar 28 #75

Yep kpete Mar 27 #51

The RW sites had been hyping impeachment and Hunter. Qutzupalotl Mar 27 #7

Truth Social? Johnny2X2X Mar 27 #16

I don't see that in the chart, which is from the OP. Hermit-The-Prog Mar 27 #17

TS is not a news web site. Same reason you don't see twitter/x or facebook there either. n/t thesquanderer Mar 27 #25

Interesting specifics, if accurate. yardwork Mar 27 #27

"Fox News only down a little" SergeStorms Mar 27 #43

Fox News is tied for Fourth best... druidity33 Mar 27 #59

They're reading their bibles. Too busy self-flagellating. lindysalsagal Mar 27 #9

I can picture them now..... SergeStorms Mar 27 #46

Those wouldn't happen to be trump bibles, would they? calimary Mar 28 #69

Feb/March 2020 is also when Covid started ramping up Sympthsical Mar 27 #10

Maybe there are very few that get all the attention. Like Tucker Carlson JI7 Mar 27 #11

again, smelvis is et tu Mar 27 #13

I'd also be interested to see the statistics on right wing hate radio. Sky Jewels Mar 27 #15

Plus who the f*** under age 40 listens to AM radio? Crowman2009 Mar 27 #24

There's a lawsuit right now.... SergeStorms Mar 27 #47

If they want Hate radio then charge them an extra $5000. flying_wahini Mar 28 #81

Works for me. SergeStorms Mar 28 #85

Sports is on AM radio (NT) GenThePerservering Mar 27 #64

AM talk radio.... SergeStorms Mar 27 #48

Very creative and very true. LastDemocratInSC Mar 27 #53

I think head is misleading. NYT is down just as much as Fox. Wash Post is down far more than either of them. thesquanderer Mar 27 #26

NYT is very much rightwing.... Think. Again. Mar 27 #33

WaPo is a moderate publication with plenty of liberal points of view. yardwork Mar 27 #35

The "center" has been allowed to be dragged so far to the right... Think. Again. Mar 27 #36

Seriously? You're going to put NYT and WP in the same category as Newsmax et al? thesquanderer Mar 27 #42

Yeah, I wasn't comparing how far right they are to each other..... Think. Again. Mar 27 #45

I'd like to see a similar data load for left wing sites OnlinePoker Mar 27 #37

Look at the chart, the data is there for non-RW sites as well (left and moderate) thesquanderer Mar 27 #41

That "perception of no one you can trust" bdamomma Mar 28 #79

Both NYT and WaPo are dogging their paywalls FakeNoose Mar 27 #57

but I don't think the paywalls there any more of a factor than they were a year ago. (n/t) thesquanderer Mar 27 #62

Lots of competition out there for the viewing public. Plus, this right-wing hate stuff is getting boring and SWBTATTReg Mar 27 #28

I used to go to (and post regularly) John Farmer Mar 27 #39
