4/11/2016 | FreeAtlanta

Are there any good conservative alternatives to Drudge Report besides Free Republic?

I googled and found Bad Blue. Are there others you all recommend?

thanks,

Free Atlanta

If that’s what you’re seeking, I use FEEDLY.

What I see at feedly.com is a blank screen. Looking at their source code, I see stuff like this:

<strong style="color:#333">Is feedly blocked</strong><br> Feedly is not able to load. It is probably because one of your extensions is blocking it. If you run Adblock, HTTPSEverywhere, Awesome screenshot etc.. please make sure that feedly.com is white listed.

I think I'll pass on it.

Put a bucked on your head and you’ll have a pretty good echo chamber, which seems to be what you’re after.

Drudge is an aggregator. It shouldn’t come as a shock that most of what gets aggregated isn’t favorable to conservatism.

Living in an echo chamber is why most leftist portrayals of conservatives are caricatures. I think once you start to tune out sources like Drudge you are pretty much just left with Ted Cruz’s twitter feed.

Ya, Ted is loved in the Senate.....

The true mark of being GOPe is to stand in the well of the Senate and call the majority leader a liar.

Just because a few from the ranks of the GOPe have decided to back Ted, does NOT make him one of them.

Which of Ted’s policy proposals would you call “elite”?

LION Ted

I love it!

The GOPe has been fighting Cruz since his primary, but since Trump hasn’t told you that, you don’t seem to know...

The trouble is that unless a website isn’t leftist, and actually reports the news, it is called “conservative” or right wing.

In any event, sites like Drudge that tend to report news, not just leftist agitprop, include:

Orbusmax, with a focus on the Pacific northwest.

http://orbusmax.com/

Carolina Plott Hound, with a focus on the southeast.

http://www.carolinaplotthound.com/

Rantburg, for War on Terror news. And there is a lot of it that never makes the MSM. There’s a whole lot of killin’ going on.

Haven’t any Cruz fans considered that maybe, just maybe Drudge is still reporting the same way he always has, it just so happens that Cruz is a part of the news they would typically report?

If you compare the Cruz stories they are posting, to the type of stories they have posted for many years, and just replace Cruz’s name with someone else who has been a life long politician, then the core message of the stories line up.

My point being, don’t run away from a website just because it’s not promoting Cruz enough. I’ve seen plenty of links posted on there that are negative of Trump as well.

Or, maybe it’s time to start considering who or what are Cruz fans really supporting? You may be voting for Cruz, but you are also voting for everyone in the establishment who has been supporting him.

I guess that is in contrast to the more sophisticated GOPe approved appeal to the ignorant and gullible by calling oneself the “principled conservative” candidate while in reality being nothing but a Bush sycophant party hack.

Try Senator Mitch Mcconnel or Paul Ryan’s congressional websites. Since the are the GOP leadership they gotta be all fulla conservatism, right?

I’d like to thank all the Cruztards for confirming my belief that prepping is not a waste of time and money. You guys are determined to go full Götterdämmerung.

I run Adblock Plus and Ghostery on the browser that accesses Feedly and have never had ads or a blank screen in the two years of using it. Sorry about your experience.

I do not know about you. I was referring to Calgary Ted’s modus operandi.
