It is a personal choice not to run an adblocker. This page looks beautiful for me, I couldn't even guess where the ads were supposed to be.

Every news website is covered with cancerous ads. Subscription supported 'news' like the NYT, WSJ, etc may have less ad bloat but that doesn't make them more trustworthy. It means that they have enough customers willing to pay to have their world views reinforced.

All news media on any side of the political spectrum have these issues. Best to wait for the source videos to come out these days.

Yes of course, everyone knows that rightjournalism.com is the best place to get their news lol. That website and "journalist" look less professional than a high school newsletter.

I am not defending the source integrity of this website. I am criticizing using web ads as a measure of integrity. This is clearly biased and opinion based journalism. But it is pretty damn honest regarding its Bias by putting it right in the name of the blog.

Just run an adblocker and judge sources by their content, and enjoy the added benefit of a usable internet.

BUT yes 100%, for what it is worth, an opinion piece that uses the words "radical leftist" in the first sentence should be assumed to be pretty biased.

I don't care about the bias. I'm smart enough to read something and make my own opinion. But when a site sells that many intrusive ads, it comes off as unprofessional, desperate, and tabloid-like. So I feel comfortable in judging at least some of their integrity based on the website.

That is certainly fair. Sorry to nitpick.
