NEW YORK -- Joseph Curl, a veteran political writer and most recently an editor for The Drudge Report, unveiled a new politics-focused, aggregation-heavy site on Monday called Right Read.
In an interview with The Huffington Post, Curl said Right Read is “going to be an aggregation site in which I read hundreds and hundreds of stories so you don’t have to.” He noted that his nearly four years working on The Drudge Report, the conservative aggregation powerhouse, gave him the skills needed to wade through the sheer volume of stories published each day in order to find the most newsy, compelling links.
According to Curl, the site will focus most heavily on national politics, his area of expertise, and is being launched through a partnership with The Washington Times. Curl served as a White House correspondent for the right-leaning paper and was on staff there until 2010, when he started at The Drudge Report. He has continued to write a column for The Washington Times since then.
Since Curl's primarily role as Drudge Report morning editor was to aggregate stories, he had less time to write about politics himself. Curls said he expects to do more writing, and perhaps traveling for the 2016 campaign, through the new site.

Well....that’s a no-starter in my book....he’s been bought off.
You wrote Washington Post and then posted a link to Washington Times....which is it? It makes a big, big difference.
WaPo, not Wash Times....??
Correction: The site is running thru the Washington Times.
Thank you. I retract my “no starter” comment. :0)
Will he have a better iPhone app than Drudge does?
There’s lots of money being made in the rightwing media, and many want a cut of it.
Seems to me like he’ll be duplicating Free Republic.
Does it come with copious quantities of malware?
I didn’t realize Curl used to work for Matt.
Cool.
I haven't notice much conservative reporting on Drudge in the last 4-years.
Just what we need: more politics. Jeez, it’s never-ending campaigning as it is. I’m burning out.
