Shocker! Isaac Schorr at Mediaite reported a new study from Syracuse University’s Newhouse School of Public Communications found that just 3.4 percent of American journalists are Republicans. In the last ten years, the proportion of Democrats has increased to 36.4 percent and proportion of Independents has ticked upwards to 51.7 percent, while the already low Republican share has been cut in half. 

The last study in 2013 pegged the proportion of Republican journalists in America at 7.1 percent, Democrats at 28.1 percent, and  Independents at 50.2 percent.
