Former Matt Drudge deputy starts rival to Drudge Report
Just the News ^ | July 27, 2021 | By Just the News staff

Posted on 07/27/2021 12:59:32 PM PDT by Hojczyk

The former editor of the Drudge Report, Joseph Curl, announced Tuesday the launch of Off The Press, a conservative-oriented aggregator that he says will have a "fearless attitude" toward covering "everything for those who devour news all day."

Curl says the marketplace is ripe for a premier, 24/7 news aggregator that consumers can trust, with the Drudge Report having become just another echo chamber for the mainstream media.

"Now more than ever, keeping up with the most important stories is a battle," Curl says. "With social media deluging everyone with endless posts on their news feeds, the internet needs an editor to cull the very best stories and present them on a single site. That will be the sole mission of Off The Press."

Joining Curl as co-editor is veteran journalist Paul Bedard, "Washington Secrets" columnist for The Washington Examiner.

While the news site's perspective will be mainly conservative, Off The Press will include coverage from all political angles, keeping voters aware of developments from the left and the right and everywhere in between.

Readers will also find stories about all the topics driving the news, from COVID-19 and inflation to critical race theory and the billionaire space race.

I didn’t even know the DR still existed; haven’t been there in well over a year.

Let’s hope it’s better than Populist Press, which has been a letdown. I second that opinion about Gateway Pundit. I trust a grain of salt before I trust GP.

I’m almost positive I discovered Free Republic through Drudge Report providing a link to it years ago. So sad what it’s become.

I visit Liberty Daily, well, daily! I never visit Drudge anymore. I haven’t in well over 2-3 years.

Andrew Brietbart also worked for Drudge, FWIW. That said, in 2021, I need another news aggregator like I need a fake vaccine.

FR, TLD, and Zero Hedge in that order are my daily staples. Otherwise, I get the rest of my news from following certain people on Telegram.

The marketplace is full and yes, more the better.

CFP - Citizen Free Press is pretty good as well as Liberty Daily. Liberty Daily has more popup type ads than CFP.

Why are you and others I see here so against The Gateway Pundit? One of the brothers, was the right arm to Andrew Breitbart and learned from him and worked alongside him for many years. One of the brothers, lived and worked in China for many years and has so much experise in that arena.

Steve Bannon praises those brothers and their reporting,TGP, all the time. Frankly, I take not only Bannon’s word but I think they have done some incredible reporting.

I used to be a Drudge regular but it’s been years since I’ve visited his site.

Jim Hoft is a charlatan.

And characterizes everything as the end of the world.

Bongino went to the dark side when he went from being a to Fox News contributor to a Fox puppet...

Let me know when he has something to say, that hasn't already been said by someone else, about the election fraud.

Hey Bongino, Say something about the election fraud and suffer the (internal) Fox cancel culture.
