Conservative Media

“Next month Tucker Carlson, the Fox News commentator and one-time CNN ‘Crossfire’ host, along with former Cheney aide Neil Patel, plans on launching The Daily Caller, an ambitious and well-funded conservative web site. The surge in conservative media is partially the result of being in the opposition after eight years of the Bush administration. That was an impetus for liberal and left-wing sites such as Huffington Post and Talking Points Memo, which made their names during the Bush administration and are now established enough to be building their own reporting staffs. Conservatives see them as models for their own plans to build online news organizations with a point of view.”
