The only people that have a problem with WND are leftist, libertarians, atheists, homo activists..

I'm none of the above-- with the possible exception of libertarian-- I do agree with some of their views.

I started reading WND pretty early on, and eventually came to the conclusion that it was dominated by sensationalized, self-aggrandizing crap. They seemed to myopically latch onto every possible conspiracy theory out there-- regardless of how far-fetched.

Between that and the plethora of in-your-face advertisements-- a lot of which disguised as actual interesting articles-- I finally gave up on them.

I certainly don't understand why you think libertarians wouldn't like WND. The entire site seemed to have a distinct libertarian bent to it. They even had a sponsored link that would ask you questions to determine where you were on the political spectrum (or which quadrant). Regardless of how you answered the questions, you'd magically find yourself somewhere within the libertarian quadrant.

I haven't read them in years. Maybe they've changed. Maybe they've switched directions. Maybe I'll give them another chance.
