I happen to watch shows from all sides of the spectrum...  Fox News, Games of Throne, American Pickers, SyFy, Battlestar Gallactica, Star Trek.

[Chaddyr23]

HGTV IS REPUBLICAN?!!!

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Jersey Shore is D?

I'm ashamed.

[Chaddyr23]

Its not a bad show! Im really sad dr phil is republican leaning. Thats my show!

[DemPGH]

Cool to see ESPN in the center. I remember when they had Rush on there for like 2 days and he made a complete jerk out of himself and was not asked back.

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Judging by where Florida's Natural is on that last graph, it looks like Anita Bryant managed to get orange juice so branded as a Republican drink, that it still is all these years later.

[Wake Me Up When The Hard Border Ends]

Homeland leans D? I'm surprised! Although if you ask me, only two of those TV shows in that diagram are worth watching, namely Seinfeld and Star Trek: TNG.

Good to see CMT on the right of the diagram though, regarding the TV networks.

I thought Krispy Kreme would be further to the right, same with Kentucky Fried Chicken.

As for food brands, I'm surprised to see Sprite so far left!

[BM]

LOL @ all most of the fast food being on the right side of the spectrum.

Fatass Republicans.

[Silent Hunter]

Homeland leans D?

Yep, it has some particularly dodgy government activity in.

I'm surprised gritty, militaristic Battlestar Galactica is to the left of post-capitalist utopia Star Trek: The Next Generation.  Especially when Syfy is on the right-wing side.

[Bacon King]

haha, why is Sprite so liberal compared to other sodas?

[Niemeyerite]

Where's Bones?

[Zioneer]

I love how the monarchist and technically reactionary Game of Thrones is a leftist show.

[Wisconsin+17]

Hmm. NCIS fan, and I'm so far right that my fast food restaurant didn't make the list.

And yes, Orange Juice is a republican drink. I drink about a litre or so of it every day.

Guess you've never worked food service. Black people love it! To the extent that we used to refer to them as "Sprite Drinkers."

If you choose to drink OJ by the litre, you are definitely not right-wing.  Slight chance if you drunk it by the liter, but if you truly loved America, you'd drink t by the quart.

[Middle-aged Europe]

I'm surprised gritty, militaristic Battlestar Galactica is to the left of post-capitalist utopia Star Trek: The Next Generation.  Especially when Syfy is on the right-wing side.

BSG is a dystopia and shows how things are not supposed to be. The show's message is: "Does humanity deserve to survive? Maybe, but only barely. Because people are mostly crap, you know."

Haha, I'd always prefer a liter (or litre) over a quart. Simple math makes things like that easy, but I suppose that makes me a so-called "radical liberal". (While I am American-born, I do tend to like -re spellings over -er when there is a dispute between the two.) According to these charts, I only lean to the left in terms of TV shows and a lesser extent on TV networks. I love Modern Family and American Dad, though CSI is unfortunately and somewhat unsurprisingly right-leaning (and according to this, the most right-wing show I watch).
