He posts excerpts from Fox News, hate radio, and right wing web sites (as well as mainstream news) and then fact checks them. He has apparently hit some nerves on the right, since he is regularly smeared by Bill O'Reilly, Hannity, Rush, Levin, Coulter and other conservative figures.

I quite enjoy the site and find it helpful and informative. You can often predict from here what your right wing friends are going to be carrying on about a day or two ahead of time, and you can collect information here to respond.

He watches the right wing media so we don't have to.
