A major part of the conservative brand is pretending to be the downtrodden underdog. Conservative media has massive reach from mainstream like Fox News to social on YouTube and TikTok.

Devils advocate but the data listed in the parent post shows Fox News is a quarter of the audience share while liberal media sums the rest

Can you really calculate like that? Presumably a lot of the networks would have a lot of audience overlap?

That is a good thing to consider, but I'm not sure that sure that "ABC" is "liberal" to an opposite degree to the way Fox is "conservative".

And that's comparing audiences for the ABC/CBS/NBC networks with the Fox News news channel. MSNBC has half the audience of Fox News.

Good numbers. I wonder if broadcast audience can be measured as well as cable where there is "clickstream" data.

All of them together are a fraction of YouTube audience. Big tech is the mainstream media
