Barstool has noticeably more coverage of actual sports and much less divisive political and cultural content. Low-brow/college humor is very different than left vs right politicking. It is not surprising that you will suffer audience loss when picking one side of the battle.

They literally became famous for their daily “smokeshow” content. If that isn’t politically divisive I don’t know what is.

Along with their sports coverage, yes. And how is “smokeshow” politically divisive?

A magazine targeting men distributing pictures of scantily-clad ladies? The humanity! On a more serious note, I don't hear any issue with tabloids putting guys in speedoes on the front, let alone hear it called, "politically divisive." What distinguishes the two?
