Ellison’s pitch for a broad centrist news audience rests, in this report, on a number that the article says public polling does not support, and that Paramount would not document. “[T]he 70% of Americans and really around the world that identify as center-left, as center-right” David Ellison “[S]tands by the stat” Paramount Skydance spokesperson “The audience for every news channel is largely going to consist of partisans and people who have relatively extreme partisan views, because they’re the ones who care about political news and follow it.” Daniel Cassino
