KOS and drudge are almost the same thing. Although I dont see a lot of op-ed on drudge and thats pretty much all kos is.

So therefore... they're pretty much nothing alike. Well done.

They're similar in that one is for liberals and one is for conservatives. I guess that went over your head.
Title: Re: What websites do you visit on a regular basis?
Post by: Fragamemnon on February 05, 2009, 10:18:29 AM: kos and drudge are significantly different-drudge is essentially a news aggregator with partisan cherrypicking of stories and headlines done by basically one guy, the other is essentially a community-oriented partisan advocacy forum.

Is it me or is Politico waaay too overcrowded now? I used to visit it all the time in 2006 and it seemed a lot cleaner and easier to navigate.
