| #10 There's something odd about the list: #12 is cbslocal.com, part of CBS and not conservative #14 is smh.com.au, which is a very progressive newspaper |

| #3 Fascinating how many of them, like Rantburg, are not primarily oriented toward politics: The Times of Israel and the Jerusalem Post, Watts Up With That, MEMRI.org, JihadWatch, and so on. And how many others thoughtfully analyze politics and policy, rather thsn emote. I wonder what a similar chart on the left would look like. |

| #2 Rantburg would be ranked at or near the top if we based this on the proportion of substantive, informative content. It saddens me to say it, but a lot of right of center sites are simply about the outrage pr0n and collecting the Adclick bucks from the outraged; not actually informing people, let alone changing anything. That would be vulgar. |
