It appears that sometime in May that TO's numbers peaked, then started to take a dive, to at best HALF of what their traffic was.. and it looks like it's flatlining near the end of the graph.

I would personally view this as indicative of the Leopold saga, that he SANK them.

Still don't know if they've been reinstated as an actual "news organization" by Yahoo and Google, maybe that's where the dive took place.

It would be in their interest to dump this guy and build their credibility back up, they were doing great for a long time.

Here's a link at Alexa comparing the DU to Truthout.. I don't see the DU taking a major dive..
