        The numbers are irrelevant. The point is that they are a very biased and highly edited propaganda spreader and fall under the umbrella of fake news. It really annoys me to because they leave the left open to attack and ridicule. They often commit one of the most cowardly of lies, the lie of omission.

            No, that’s not what I said at all. Your initial question implied that their views were irrelevant because they aren’t one of the “top rated” news outlets

              Daily Kos?

              What are their viewership numbers?

              Are they among the highest rated news shows?

              This is all highly relevant to the conversation. I’m not 100% familiar with them which means they probably are a fringe site and would be easy to ignore. If they get 10k hits a month on their webpage it’s much different then something like Fox getting millions of hits and being on the highest rated new shows multiple times.
