The Daily Signal: A Conservative Challenge to Corporate Media’s Biased Narrative
Brian Gottstein /
Every year, Americans have fewer and fewer places to turn for the stories that impact our lives—stories that the corporate media often blatantly distort or outright ignore.
But there is one outlet millions of readers turn to each month that features truthful journalism from reporters who don’t detest America. An outlet that regularly exposes the stories the Washington establishment would rather keep hidden. An outlet that features world-renowned experts sharing solutions to the biggest issues Americans face, from stopping the indoctrination in our schools to protecting our borders to cutting government waste and getting society back to the America we once knew.
Of course, I’m talking about The Daily Signal.
Many corporate media outlets push leftist propaganda and brazen lies. They promote stories that fit their narratives with biased headlines written to get more clicks, not inform the public. And they aren’t even shy about hiding their bias anymore.
That’s why The Heritage Foundation started The Daily Signal. As Heritage’s online news outlet, The Daily Signal provides truthful news coverage and critical commentary on politics, border security, election integrity, national security, and issues like critical race theory and gender ideology in schools.
The Daily Signal works each day to hold politicians and the groups that influence them accountable. Our investigative reporters crack open some of government’s biggest failures and discover the real Americans suffering from the harm leftist policies and woke activist organizations cause. They shine the light of day on the agenda of the Left, exposing it to millions of Americans. And they often break major stories that many in Washington wish the American people would never hear about.
Increasingly, they can’t ignore our groundbreaking work. In 2023, for example, Daily Signal reporting was cited by outlets like The New York Times, The Washington Post, Fox News, USA Today, and NBC News.
Decision-makers frequently reference The Daily Signal’s reporting, and many of them are contributors to our pages. Most recently, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee cited our reporting on the Southern Poverty Law Center as part of his investigation into the extent to which the SPLC influences federal employees in their official duties.
The Daily Signal has a major impact on keeping a check on government, which is one reason our reader traffic puts us among the top 20 conservative news websites in America today.
But it’s not just about pointing out what’s wrong in Washington or your statehouse, it’s about pointing out the solutions. Our team of professional journalists is supported by the world-renowned expertise and unparalleled insight of The Heritage Foundation’s team of policy analysts. Heritage’s experts are focused on creating solutions to America’s biggest issues, and they share those solutions with Daily Signal readers each day. As such, our articles often feature in-depth analyses one can’t find in most other news outlets.
And speaking of our readership, we reach members of Congress and the administration, state government officials, conservative leaders, and grassroots conservatives across the nation (and even liberals who want a break from the corporate media propaganda). We’re also reaching younger Americans with our meteoric growth on Instagram and YouTube, where some of our videos have attained over a million views each.
But without support from our readers, none of this work could continue. As we approach the end of the year, The Daily Signal is counting on donations from readers like you. We are a nonprofit news outlet and rely on the generous gifts of our supporters.
