Reads like a youngster's definition of balanced: unhinged neo-cons contrasted by centrist sympathies. Complete bypass of progressive, left of center nuance.

Like so many sites before it, lax moderation will polarize the users resulting in a mass exodus of the "No, you're crazy" crowd. I give it 18 months to right itself or implode.

I'm unfamiliar with the other publications, but in my experience NB Media Co-op leans quite progressive.

(For reference I'm basically a caricature of a mid-20s socdem who thinks they're actually an anarchist)

I'll have to check that one out myself, but I know The Maple, Ricochet, and PressProgress are sites one might call progressive (centre-left).

I don't know where you're getting this idea.

The list of sources includes a bunch of notable progressive voices like Ricochet and Press Progress, while I couldn't find a single right wing example (extreme or otherwise). Browsing the headlines on their front page, every last story I saw lacked any reference to hyperbole, and most of the stories took positions typically occupied by the Left.

Where is the neo-con content?
