It's a rupert murdoch rag.. he bought a bunch of em during the election.. all with names similar to existing trusted news sites..
Like.. we already had New York Times, and Washington Post, so Rupert Murdoch (owner of fox news) buys/creates New York Post. so people will associate it with the old media and get tricked into the right wing fascist funnel.
It's disgusting.

In fairness, the NY Post is older than The New York Times and Washington Post. It was founded by Alexander Hamilton as the NY Evening Post and then became the NY Post in 1934. Murdoch purchased it in 1976. He was forced to sell it in 1988 due to federal regulations, but was allowed to repurchase it in 1993.

I couldn't agree more.
