  • Fox News and CNN are more popular among Hispanics than non-Hispanics, while the Weather Channel and ESPN are more popular among non-Hispanics. While most of the other favorite channels seem to be shared by both groups in varying order, it is notable that Animal Planet achieved a middle ranking among Hispanics, but did not even rank among non-Hispanics.

Trends:

  • Across all three platforms, both Hispanics and non-Hispanics share the most-frequented properties, indicating more similarity in primary interests among the groups than difference.
  • Given the higher Hispanic ranking of National Geographic and the appearance of Animal Planet in the Hispanic rankings (vs. the absence of A.P. in the Non-Hispanic rankings) we can conclude that Hispanics harbor a more deep-seated interest in the natural world/animal life than non-Hispanics.
