Help, please. The Daily Beast. Is it good, bad, reliable, twisted?

[Cerridwen]

I've found an article I'm not sure I should link and I don't know The Daily Beast's reputation. Or if I do know it, it's not coming to mind right this second.

Thanks everyone!

1. Daily Beast I think is fine. Daily Caller is the RW Rag

4. Thank you.

I sometimes have a hard time keeping straight those sites DUers have nick names for versus the actual name of the site.

2. It is sort of shallow. Lot of entertainment, celebrity, fashion stuff.

The news stories are fairly well written, but short. It's a good way to get a headline view of the latest news and interest stories. This is my opinion. Others?

5. "Shallow" That's a good word for the writing in the article.

I may post it just for "posterity's sake".

Thanks.

3. Daily Beast is full of false equivalency and "the left does it too" apologists.

Howie Kurtz writes for them, which should tell you a lot right there.

7. Just peachy. In a not-peachy way. :)

Thank you.

9. They seem self obsessed. Not really impressed.
