Are my eyes failing me, or are they not in the chart?

Having a hard time pre-deciding who and what content I think should appear in such a chart. Vlog brothers? e-newspapers?

Josh Jonson Taylor Tomlinson hell 60% of the standup comedians easily. The picture would be much different with them in. Colbert alone would blow rogan out the water.

In that case, I think this chart is probably saying more about what kinds of media people with different leanings consume, not so much about deep pockets or a generational shift.

Late Show with Colbert has 10.1mil subscribers on Youtube, so yeah it should be on there.

If you expand to network TV for this chart — which I think you should, cuz all network TV has a digital presence too these days — it had an average of 2.42mil viewers per episode on TV through Q2.

Joe Rogan, for comparison, boasts 11mil listeners per episode.

So even just based on equating to network TV viewership, he’d probably be somewhere between MeidasTouch and The Breakfast Club.
