Richtopia has developed a list of the 250 “most influential” business journalists using an automatic algorithm based on social media influence, Klout scores and a secret recipe.
Richtopia states, “We take into account various metrics from Twitter, Facebook, Wikipedia, Youtube, LinkedIn and Instagram. The list gets updated each Monday. If you believe you fit the criteria (or you know a journalist who does), you could add people by clicking the ‘join’ button. All entries are considered by our admins, and Richtopia reserves the right to accept or forbid people from the list as it deems fit.”
Here’s a selection of some of the business journalists on the list:
No. 2: Maria Bartiromo of Fox Business Network
No. 8: Joe Weisenthal of Bloomberg News
No. 16: Dan Primack of Axios
No. 18: Josh Barro of Business Insider
No. 30: Alan Murry of Fortune
No. 44: Sapna Maheshwari of the New York Times
