The vast majority of people who work in media are on the left. Anyone who has watched their coverage of Trump over the last few years knows this. They are not even trying to hide it anymore. But the truth is more shocking than you know. Most of these people are further left than Bernie Sanders, the most far left political figure of our time.Hot Air reports: Study: Most Journalists Are To The Left Of Bernie Sanders (But Don’t Worry They’re Totally Fair) An academic study by a trio of professors claims to have proven there is no such thing as media bias despite the fact

I don't see journalists represented on the graph.
If so, this falls into "The sun rises in the east" category.

We used to have reporters; now they are journalists. Kinda like teachers and educators. These journalists respond to the editorial policies of their organization. If the newspaper or broadcast outlet is conservative/liberal goes a long way to determining what and how they present their stuff. One doesn't last long bucking management or ownership. Unless their stuff is given broadcast time or print space, it's not going to be seen. So, let's start with compliance to the editorial bias.
Media today is not "reporting", and reporters know they play a role. Run down the bios of your favorite reporter/contributor and you'll discover that, for television, it is more likely than not their educational background is drama/theatre, not journalism. The ability to emote under make-up and flawlessly read the script is the value they add to broadcasts. Along the way they get their schtick together, their on-screen persona that is sold to the public.
Print journalists are dinosaurs kept alive by guesting on TV. But it's all the same - they crank out a product that fills a publication's needs and viewpoint. Get a by-line and smidgen of notoriety, maybe a following, and you can make it on the networks as a bit player.
And it begs the question: Why aren't there MORE "conservative" media outlets? They seem to be very profitable, with little competition. Why is there no apparent celebration of conservative media careers? Name the #1 conservative journalist...not Rush, or Sean or any of the pundits. Who's #1 on the beat?

The journalists ARE the graph.
What wasn't on the graph: How a person's position on the X axis is determined. What criteria were used to calculate a numeric value?

And this is why I quit watching the network "news" shows decades ago. They are totally untrustworthy.
I watch local "news" shows to keep up with stuff in my hood, but the leftist bias is quite evident even in those broadcasts now.

There are no reporters or journalist. All we have, if you are interested (I'm certainly not), are opinion writers with lap tops sitting in lounges at happy hour posting their opinions, basically deadbeats. You have to have extreme hate for this country to begin to write the garbage that they do that's where Bernie Sanders and others like him reside. America is too good to be left alone to prosper it needs to plucked apart for the sheer hatred of the place. Journalism is just a nice name for socialist jerks of course they are all left of Bernie Sanders it's where hate begins. Watching Sanders is like watching an unhinged mad man who combed his hair with a balloon.

They are just as corrupt in their own ways as any democrat politician too. They know all about Epstein and who is involved in all that stuff, and they know all about Hollywood's perversions too. There is a price to pay someday for all this, and they will pay it.

To be left is to be incurious. Those in disagreement are vilified, dehumanized and dismissed. No dialogs, no debates, what could be simpler?
As such, journos gain job security and easy money by viewing the world from a singular point. The notion of incurious truth seekers may seem incongruous, welcome to our world and keep your powder dry.

I truly believe that. Can you count on one hand any honest journalists?
