Media and social coverage of the 2 parties below, 6 Aug 2026 to 3 Nov 2026. Measured sentiment, not a poll and not a forecast.
Each bar splits all mentions between the two blocs, like a chamber. The number inside is share of voice; the shade shows net sentiment (positive minus negative). Media and social are measured separately because they rarely agree.
| Bloc | Source | Share of voice | Positive | Neutral | Negative | Net |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Democrats | Media | 51% | 43% | 25% | 32% | +11 |
| Republicans | Media | 49% | 14% | 26% | 60% | −47 |
| Democrats | Social | 51% | 9% | 18% | 73% | −64 |
| Republicans | Social | 49% | 19% | 24% | 57% | −38 |
The measures of each bloc, from all the mentions of its parties: share of voice, net sentiment and, for media, the editorial share (mentions that are not press releases). Each axis is scaled to the bloc with the highest value (net sentiment from −100 to +100); the number next to each point is the measured value.
| Measure | Democrats | Republicans |
|---|---|---|
| Media share of voice | 51% | 49% |
| Social share of voice | 51% | 49% |
| Media net | +11 | −47 |
| Social net | −64 | −38 |
| Editorial share | 99% | 99% |
Each party is a dot: how media rate it (left to right) against how social posts rate it (bottom to top). Inside the shaded band, both agree. Above it, the public is kinder than the press; below it, the press is kinder than the public. Dot size is total mentions.
Largest gap between social and media sentiment: Democrats (−0.53).
| Party | Bloc | Media sentiment | Social sentiment | Gap (social − media) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Democrats | Democrats | +0.08 | −0.45 | −0.53 |
| Republicans | Republicans | −0.31 | −0.27 | +0.04 |
Per bloc: each bloc is one dot, from all the mentions of its parties.
Largest gap between social and media sentiment: Democrats (−0.53).
| Bloc | Media sentiment | Social sentiment | Gap (social − media) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Democrats | +0.08 | −0.45 | −0.53 |
| Republicans | −0.31 | −0.27 | +0.04 |
Two rows per party and per bloc: the top row is media, the bottom row is social. The number on the right is net (favorable minus unfavorable).
| Party | Bloc | Source | Positive | Neutral | Negative | Net |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Democrats | Media | 43% | 25% | 32% | +11 | |
| Democrats | Social | 9% | 18% | 73% | −64 | |
| Republicans | Media | 14% | 26% | 60% | −47 | |
| Republicans | Social | 19% | 24% | 57% | −38 | |
| Democrats | Democrats | Media | 43% | 25% | 32% | +11 |
| Democrats | Democrats | Social | 9% | 18% | 73% | −64 |
| Republicans | Republicans | Media | 14% | 26% | 60% | −47 |
| Republicans | Republicans | Social | 19% | 24% | 57% | −38 |
Share of voice and net sentiment of each bloc as a 7-day moving average (each value covers the 7 days ending that day). Solid lines are media, dashed lines are social. A thin dotted line without a dot bridges days with no mentions collected; the table shows “–” for them. Marked days are where media and social sentiment of that bloc differ by more than 0.30 on the -1 to +1 scale; only days with enough mentions in both sources are marked.
3 marked day(s) (bloc, social minus media); the latest: 1 Nov 2026 (Democrats, −0.51), 27 Oct 2026 (Democrats, −0.42), 20 Oct 2026 (Democrats, −0.59).
