Leans right
Summarized from more than one independent rater, including AllSides and Ad Fontes Media. We do not rate outlets ourselves.
Founded in 2019 by conservative writers who broke with the movement's direction after 2016. Reader-funded, with no advertising, and publishing conservatives arguing openly with one another rather than presenting a unified line.
Its fact-checking operation examines claims from the right as rigorously as from the left, which is rare and which its subscribers pay for. Critics on the right argue it represents a faction with few voters behind it and mistakes its own preferences for conservatism; critics on the left note it remains committed to policy positions they oppose.
