The Heritage Foundation launches The Daily Signal news platform
Daily Signal ^ | 06/03/2014

Posted on 06/03/2014 6:13:22 AM PDT by BuckeyeTexan

We know you’re busy. And we’re quite certain you care deeply about the future of our country.

We care, too. We care about your communities, your families, and how Washington’s decisions are going to impact you.

More and more people are grabbing bites of news from mobile devices on the go – and they need a place where they can find digestible, trusted news on the most important policy debate of the day.

That’s why the Heritage Foundation team created a digital-first, multimedia news platform called The Daily Signal.

The Daily Signal provides policy and political news as well as conservative commentary and policy analysis – in a fresh, visually rich, readable format for your desktop, tablet or phone.

We are committed to news coverage that is accurate, fair and trustworthy. As we surveyed the media landscape, it became clear to us that the need for honest, thorough, responsible reporting has never been more critical. That’s a challenge in today’s fast-moving world. And it’s a challenge we’re willing to accept.

We are dedicated to developing a news outlet that cuts straight to the heart of key political and policy arguments – not spin reported as news.

The Daily Signal is supported by the resources and intellectual firepower of The Heritage Foundation – a dedicated team of experienced journalists to cover the news and more than 100 policy experts who can quickly help put issues in perspective. We believe this combination of news, commentary and policy analysis will establish The Daily Signal as a trusted source on America’s most important issues.

We believe that high-quality, credible news reporting on political and policy issues is of paramount importance to an informed and free society. This is a reflection of that Jeffersonian notion that the greatest defense of liberty is an informed citizenry.

That’s what I was thinking. We should support them.

A note from Jim DeMint:

It is to exercise this right—to communicate freely and directly with the American people–that The Heritage Foundation has created The Daily Signal.

The Daily Signal will hold its “camera” to our nation, its current events, culture, people and politics. It will show the world as it is, not as conservatives or liberals or libertarians—or even communists—wish it to be.

We are fortunate to live in a country where robust political discussion is encouraged. And as a nation, we can set the right priorities, place trust in the right leaders, and make the right choices only if we have access to dependable journalism and incisive policy analysis.

I know there are many Americans, with all manner of political beliefs, who would agree. I invite them to come to The Daily Signal to see what we’re covering, join the debate, and share their ideas.

Heritage Foundation, a classic bunch of a**hats if every there was one. These clowns took $25,000.00 from the Romney camp when he was pushing his healthcare bill as Gov. their paper supported his plan, then when he ran for POTUS they redrew the paper.

I was recently asked to join The Heritage Foundation, I asked the caller if she could name their research paper on the Obama birth cert issue, of course she couldn’t, there isn’t one. I then told her that they are NOT a leading think tank of conservatives, but are nothing more then an arm of the GOP left.

So as someone already stated on this thread, just what we need, another disinformation specialist....

Nobody has said that thus far on this thread. I don’t know what you’re talking about.

I was glad to see this site, until I got to the article about Climate change is a Fact (and man is part of the problem). Goodbye.

If the site is successful, I’m guessing there will be.
