Independent Journal Review Right No consensus 2018 'There is no consensus on the reliability of the Independent Journal Review. Posts from "community" members are considered self-published sources. The site's "news" section consists mostly of syndicated stories from Reuters, and citations of these stories should preferably point to Reuters.' As of 2026, it looks like it is using mostly content from Daily Caller News Foundation, a deprecated source in 2019, though there is still a significant amount of its own news content. Ad Fontes lists it as 'strong right' and 'less reliable'

The Dispatch tbd 1 2020 RIght-leaning,[43][44][45] newer outfit that might not have enough of a firewall between ownership and editorial direction. Too new to really say as of last discussion in 2020. Is it worth an RFC? 0.89
The New Atlantis No consensus 1 2017 The New Atlantis should be considered generally unreliable due to concerns about its think tank association. 1 Links Spamcheck 0.89
Straight Arrow News Generally unreliable 1 2025 Straight Arrow News (SAN) should, for now, be considered generally unreliable due to editors concerns about its lack of editorial independence from a vocal pro-Trump Republican billionaire megadonor owner. SAN, launched in 2021, has not yet created a track record of journalistic best practices that editors can feel confident about its reliability. 1 Links Spamcheck 0.80
The Times Literary Supplement No consensus 1 2015 The Times Literary Supplement should be considered generally unreliable as an advocacy organization. Editors particularly expressed concern about it being described as 'a missionary journal, not a scholarly one'. 1 Links Spamcheck n/a
