Partial list of topics that the service covers. |
Minor Con: there is opinion on the site. The editors do have opinions.
They do express those opinions in the Op Ed pages.
Sometimes forcefully. Many times with a touch of humor. More like a subtle smile.
Unless you don't agree them and then it is a grimace.
If you want straight news, stick with that side of the site.
I'm balancing this as a minor con because visitors have full access to the news stories without nag screens or ads. This is very rare and I don't know how long it will last.
One more thing. There is the Walt Girdner photo of the day. Many of the photos are lovely and take the stink out of 2025. The photo is usually toward the bottom of the main page of the site.

There is an app available via Google Play or the Apple App Store. It appears that the app is free to use on phone and tablets.I tried it out on my phone. There doesn't seem to be ads or nag screens. It is easy to navigate and read the news stories.
I'm not endorsing or promoting the service. But I do use it when I need an understanding of what is happening with the conversations between the judicial and executive branches of government.
