• "Among liberals, the largest circles were CNN and The New York Times, each shaded pale blue to indicate a center-left association."
• "But the other side of the image showed just one big red circle: Breitbart. It was three times the size of Fox News and maybe a dozen times larger than any other news source on the right."
• "If you wanted to know who was driving the Republican agenda in 2016, you didn't need to look much farther than the massive crimson orb."

Go down the hole.
