@ZellaQuixote This table shows the number of unique headlines on each site mentioning each candidate. Breitbart, Fox, NY Times, and Reddit are the most prolific (Reddit being a bit of an outlier due to being user-generated content, some of which may not have made it into our dataset.)
@ZellaQuixote Biden, Gabbard, Harris, Sanders, and Warren were the most frequent fliers for at least one site. Sanders got the most headlines overall, Harris was consistently covered but rarely #1, and Gabbard drew attention from RT, several fringe sources, and tech site Ars Technica.
@ZellaQuixote Clarification: the set of media sites used in this analysis is not comprehensive - the goal was to include news stories from a variety of categories (Western MSM, left and right-wing fringe sources, etc.)
