WorldNetDaily, more properly, or WND, but not-so-lovingly known by the other name due to their rabid right-wing conspiracy theories, usually directed toward Clintons and Obamas, often with an air of being the last, martyred bastion of Christianity about the whole thing. The focal point of the Obama birther craze during the 2008 election, they’ve moved on today Mueller Probe conspiracies and other Trump-echoing talking points.
And now they — with their founder, Joseph Farah — seem to be spiraling down into insolvency, despite repeated drives for donations, largely due to bad business decisions, very poor control over expenses, and, honestly, no longer having quite the same unique niche they once had. Heck, half of their stories seem to be datelined from Fox News, albeit with some extra wobbling spin on the headlines, which raises the question of why people should bother going to WND in the first place.
