Is Slate a right wing site? There is an article that heard about on the Michael Signorelli show.

That should be published about Facebook and censorship

I check them out every couple of days - they often have interesting articles.

It's nowhere near click-baity as Raw Story.

But it definitely commercial.

If I recall correctly when it started it was a partnership with Micrsoft.
