but I go there because they have the latest breaking news. The pop ups and whatever else is very annoying that's why I'm in and out.

Sometimes I reboot my computer after I go there.

As far as their content, it isn't Pulitzer prize stuff but it's way better than the right wing rags that get cited here, like the Hill. The Hill that traitor John Solomon was with and who Jonathan Turley still writes for.

Raw Story is pretty far left IMO.
