Former Matt Drudge deputy starts rival to Drudge Report
Just the News ^ | July 27, 2021 | By Just the News staff

Posted on 07/27/2021 12:59:32 PM PDT by Hojczyk

The former editor of the Drudge Report, Joseph Curl, announced Tuesday the launch of Off The Press, a conservative-oriented aggregator that he says will have a "fearless attitude" toward covering "everything for those who devour news all day."

Curl says the marketplace is ripe for a premier, 24/7 news aggregator that consumers can trust, with the Drudge Report having become just another echo chamber for the mainstream media.

"Now more than ever, keeping up with the most important stories is a battle," Curl says. "With social media deluging everyone with endless posts on their news feeds, the internet needs an editor to cull the very best stories and present them on a single site. That will be the sole mission of Off The Press."

Joining Curl as co-editor is veteran journalist Paul Bedard, "Washington Secrets" columnist for The Washington Examiner.

While the news site's perspective will be mainly conservative, Off The Press will include coverage from all political angles, keeping voters aware of developments from the left and the right and everywhere in between.

Readers will also find stories about all the topics driving the news, from COVID-19 and inflation to critical race theory and the billionaire space race.

If it’s properly curated, a boon.

But if it features the likes of Gateway Pundit, I’ll pass.

As will most thinking people.

I haven’t been to the Drudge Report in over six months. I used to visit at least a few times daily. It was a habit I had to break but I did and don’t plan to go back.

“Off The Press”

I read that a bit differently.

“The Liberty Daily” is the best conservative news source I have found...(other than FR, of course)...

Hmmmm... isn't that what was said about Drudge before it started going left?

I'll stick to Ground News and FR for my aggregates, thanks.

If he left Drudge Report any less than 5 years ago, then forget it. It will be just another leftist rag.

He left prior to the launching of LifeZette so that is more than 5 years ago.

From 2010 to 2014, Curl also worked for the Drudge Report, where he worked the morning shift.

I think he is dating David brock. I might be wrong but I know for sure he is a significant other in the (media) if that (matters)

There was a guy by that name whose site I looked at, a little, maybe 6-8 years ago? That guy?

My initial review indicates the curation is superior.

Yours?
