Does anyone know anything about the producers of this website? I went =
to
preview it and it seems to have a very pronounced conservative bias in =
the
few articles that I read. I looked around on the site and found nothing =
to
indicate who any of the people involved are, except for their names. =
The
FAQ section lists "scholars and experts" as the authors of the articles, =
but
nothing indicates the authority of those contributing authors.
This service might be a good one, but I am concerned that a biased =
agenda on
the part of the producers might diminish the value of the resource. Any
information will be appreciated.
