I've seen a number of articles posted here that a day or two later show up as headlines on Gateway Pundit. I'm not slamming GP, but rather just noting what a good job the GAW pedes do at finding significant material before it goes mainstream.

Damn right we are.
If we are the news then why is all our news, 98% of it, an aggregation of other peoples news.
I suppose most news sites are just aggregations of news from different sites. I think what sets member sites like this apart is ever now and then someone will post and insight, a dig, on a particular topic that is unique.
That's exactly what TGP is. Pre packaged, convenient reporting that goes by a script or pre designed format. This is why even though I disagree with several independent journalists and activists, I have more respect for them. The real news is found scattered across different mediums, not in one location. And you make a good point; most of the posts are reposts of news articles from other sites. That's not what OP necessarily meant, but logically you are correct. That's why I know when I say something that everyone believes more or less in reality, they will send shills after me just because I show disdain for illogical (emotional) reporting that is for clicks and revenue rather than for honest discussion. Some people still aren't ready to do that without getting emotions involved, and almost all of them will cry at the very mention of that. Use logic, not emotion. They're being hypocritical by appearing to be knowledgeable about what Q said and then coming to a Q discussion board and doing the opposite
Not just TGP either. All the conservative media. Great work all.
Purkiss :)
We have the hardest working frogs in the pond. 🐸
Thank you to all who tirelessly dig for the correct information!!!! God bless you all!!!
Something like, "we are the news"?
My only complaint on GP is their passion for over-the-top clickbait-style titles, but that was ultinately the strategy that first got them a following in the old facebook days.
But honestly GP has done a great job over the years in this battle. There was a period in 2021, when we just had the election stolen from us and patriots were scattered and banned and trying to rebuild our networks, that GP was one of the only places to get non-normie patriot news. Many of the other 'conservative' sites folded on reporting voter fraud investigations, the AZ audit, Gulliani, Pillowman'a cyber symposium, etc - but GP kept the info coming.
I suppose they have chased a few dead-end rabbit trails, but uh... haven't we all?
Awesome to see GAW grow. I remember when this seemed like it was just a few dozen grumpy anons that got run out of PW for not dooming enough.
Goat refugees!!!
Here here researchers! Kudos!
This is what used to happen on Reddit before Conde Nast got their hands on it, most of the news published on Reddit turned up in the MSM 2 days later.
The journos didn't got out to find news anymore, they just surfed Reddit to steal it.
Crowd sourced journalism is powerful. People just aren't sure what journalism looks like anymore.
I specifically come to GAW for current headlines! Absolutely! I’m on Truthsocial, listen and read other top websites but I come here for an overview of what’s going on!
I've seen that quite a bit with GP. I'm fairly certain (not 100%, but over 75%) that the Hoft Bros frequent GAW, if only as lurkers.
Yeah, I agree. Too may coincidences.
I'm ok with that, I like TGP.
This is literally my news source. I check GA a couple times every day to glance the headlines. Thanks, guys!
Gateway Pundit would do himself (and us) a huge favor by toning down the crazy ads on his site. "Lower blood sugar by eating this! Watch!" "A teaspoon on an empty stomach drops weight like crazy!" Skin tags! Moles! jfc, his site looks like it's run by high school kids in the 1990s.
Not taking away from you observation but I have noticed more than a few times articles appearing on TGP that appeared on other news sites a day to two before.
The logical question you have to ask during you above observation is do other sites have news that proceeds TGP article or is this true for GAW alone? Is GAW faster to the news, or is TGP just slower in some news than anyone else?
Yep, I always come here to check what I've missed while looking and reading other places.
X22 report appears to use a lot of material from here too.
WE ARE THE MEMES!
Imo, GWP is a grift outlet, always has been (it's kinda in the name lol) They also write just like other MSM articles. I've noticed they source a lot of their material from American thinker and what I would consider other independent writers, so it's more of monetized reposting in a way I guess. They are the internet version of Newsmax.. hell Newsmax makes a better impression than them. Just the news is much more authentic imo.
I'm just simply not reading anything that has to use BOMBSHELL and cliquey catch lines in their title every other article. It's not genuine and it's not honest. If you are a loyalist to TGP that's a personal decision but you're missing out on the critical context over "political opinion". That's what a pundit is by definition.
"TGP is the ONLY one besides here and TS I check daily."
I would consider that loyalist. What is insulting about that? Did not mean so. I'm a loyalist to GAW definitely. I really appreciate the community and I defend criticism of it, regardless of some of the negative interactions that occur. Dan Bongino was in very close connection with John solomon. It was them two that did the best at reporting about crossfire hurricane, the biggest issue in our nation's history imo, so that's why I said justthenews. No harm meant. I just don't want people to stick with few resources for research.
Justthenews makes up half of its crap.
John Solomon makes up shit? You're going to have to provide proof for that bold statement.
Ah, you're right. I was thinking RealRawNews. My bad.
I've gotten some pretty good sources from Just The News but I've gotten far more sources from Gateway Pundit.
What a stupid thing to argue about, just do your due diligence if you don't trust them but they are right about a lot of things that aren't talked about.
They will also occasionally get things wrong but they've become much more professional these last 2 years and I'm seeing errors a lot less than when I first started reading either outlet.
And the other half is pure fiction.
