Whatfinger.com and The Truth Factory (news/opinion from a CAT) on YouTube...both feature material that I didn’t see on FR.
I done did it...........;)
But closing out the rest of the world's viewpoints is absolutely no different than what the Right does when it ridicules the Left for by calling them snowflakes, micro-aggressed, and safe space flakes, for refusing other's free speech rights.
Refusing to see what other people see and think makes us not different than those we criticize for not listening to conservative viewpoints.

‘Make America Hate Again,’ isn’t news. It’s the type of caption a gay man would put up against a person he was having a spat with. Drudge had that as his top header for ~24 hrs.
“I find the constant refreshing on Drudge to be especially annoying.”
BTTT
I haven’t checked Drudge in about a decade at this point. He’s hip-deep in the swamp.
I get liberal headlines on dozens of news sites every day. If drudge is heading that route (and it appears he has in recent months), then I will continue to get my liberal news from other sites (CNBC, yahoo finance, wsj, nyt, wapo, twitter, the intercept, etc) and get my conservative news elsewhere (like here). I’ll still check drudge every now and then - especially around elections - but his usefulness recently has really waned - and his headlines this weekend were ridiculous. He’s getting more and more click bait. You’d think at this point he’d be worth at least $50 million and not care for click bait but apparently not.
Yes.
For later...
Thanks Max.
I think some of us are starved for a bit of good news every now and again, as opposed to the tidal wave of leftist propaganda from the vast majority of news sites out there.
Drudge was a bit of an oasis where a conservative could go for a refreshing sip or even a drink. It hasn’t tasted as refreshing lately. Perhaps some of the other online watering holes listed upthread will better serve to satisfy our need for reading a sane bit of news.
Great post - thanks oldpuppy.

Coach is wrong. Drudge has always been ‘the world as drudge sees it.’
It’s his site, he owns it, so I really don’t care. But, I don’t hold out much hope for any site being on target all the time.
The best site has always been Free Republic. Even if you disagree with the mainstream, you get to voice your opinion. And discuss in almost real time.
And YOU get to post alternative articles for all to see.
Try putting an article up on the others and see how far you get. Try ‘treehouse’, breitbart, etc. Soon we see the truth.
Support the freepathon or lose the most important, fair, open conservative site on the web.
Support the freepathon or lose the one real voice that you have.
