Is there a liberal or moderate alternative to the Drudge Report?

[ForgoTheConsequence]

Huffington Post is unreadable now and has turned into a sexist cesspool.

1. DU's LBN and the Daily Kos n/t

[Xipe Totec]

4. That gives Drudge way too much credit in my opinion

Food for thought.

6. Here are links to a few

Talking Points Memo

5. No

Generally we are fact based. There are some good news aggregators though, Think Progress is pretty good.

7. Maybe -

8. TPM carries some original breaking news and original analysis.

I'd guess they may be closest in function - without being a cesspool of lies and innuendo like Grunge, of course.

9. A sensationailst site that constantly posts false information?

I hope not

[leveymg]

12. Check.

10. How about classic journalism?

11. Not A Fan

I don't like the setup/format of Daily Kos, especially the way the comments are arranged in each story. I much prefer a standard mb format like DU.

14. I didn't really mind HuffPo until recently.

I use to just ignore the celebrity nonsense. But this is really over the top and sexist. The horror, a 66 year old woman left the house without makeup!

15. What is so special about linking

to a bunch of outside articles?

Here are my own suggestions that write their own content:

http://www.salon.com/

http://wonkette.com/

http://www.motherjones.com/

http://www.liberaloasis.com/

Not what I'm looking for, thanks though.

[Shankapotomus]

19. Okay, how about this one, then?

Thanks for the recommendations.

21. Raw Story, Talking Points Memo, Think Progress

And many more.

I agree with you, HuffPo is trash.

25. Yes

See that I'm way late to this conversation, but check out TheNewsFlasher.com. Totally a liberal, humorous Drudge.
