• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

It seems like every few days a new person is driven out of news reporting or journalism to go on Substack or Rumble or something. Some start their own web sites.

It does little good to say you're boycotting A, B, or C if there are only six networks all owned by billionaires and censored by officials with the connivance of said billionaires to try to keep either from taking the full blame for being censors. Free people need their OWN network.

What that amounts to is this: we need to collect as many of these myriad voices in the wilderness as possible, AND come up with a way for people to go through and find their most noteworthy items collaboratively. Because yes, editors are few and far between out there, and people deprived of their merited audience tend to get self-indulgent like forum posters. There needs to be a way to have a variety of "drudge report" like compilations, from different perspectives, so that readers reconnect with the exiles and have an alternative to the corporations.

Now yes, I realize this is a temporary measure - once the big outlets are suitably domesticated, the little people are next. But a lot of things are temporary nowadays, including the human race.

So please - tell us some good places to look!

Aggregate news sites already exist...whether you want a left wing slant or a right wing slant.

You mention Drudge. That's one of them. Another is Mediaite. Both left wing.

A couple of right wing aggregate sites are Gateway Pundit and The Right Scoop.

I asked Copilot about it and it gave me a more extensive list of left and right slanted news aggregate sites.


🟥 Right-Wing News Aggregators​

These sites typically promote conservative, libertarian, or nationalist viewpoints:

🟦 Left-Wing News Aggregators​
