Horrifically biased click-bait site. I would be hard pressed to find anything pertaining to objective reporting, or an accredited writer that could slap two sentences together without the hyperbole of an angry 16 year old on Twitter. There is no news. This is their formula:

1. Throw a dart at a board full of anything Republican, right wing, conservative, or not-left-extremist
2. Not investigate any of the details but rather pick the opposing view to the extreme
3. Write it out like you're reviewing a punk rock concert
4. Give it a catchy title that will attract young, impressionable youth to read the title, but not look any further.
5. Give it some wild claims further down for the idiots who are now young adults and still believing this is reality
6. Post it under "News"
7. Rinse and repeat.

Please do yourself a favor and don't fill your brain with this garbage. You can't hire writers, editors, and investigators who have been bought and sold by the Deep state to give you both side of anything.

Gonzalo Lira has dissapeared and probably been arrested by the ukrainian secret police. Days prior The Daily Beast wrote a horrible one sided piece on him. They can be proud of themselves. I wouldnt be able to life with myself knowing this.

I thought that National Enquirer was a bad publication, but man oh man, these people top it off! How do people even read this? Your bias has to be on another level to able to confirm it reading this garbage. This is extremely detrimental to our society, we need to get rid of publications like this. We are supposed to believe now that if democrats lose in 2022 it isn't due to bad public policy, corruption, extreme views or plain old a total disconnect from what the masses want, no, it's because Putin interfered in the elections! Give me a break! Who believes this doodoo?

Propaganda
March 6, 2023

The Daily Beast is the king of media "disinformation" as it pushes an extremely progressive narrative under the guise that they are presenting news. The fact that so many read and believe it as if it were the Gospel is a sad comment on the culture of today's society.

Gotta tell ya.
When it comes to a waisted online journalistic experience, The Daily Beast is less than a waist of time.
For the fact that if your gonna go online with any type of story, at least the hell make it a readable article, not some kinda whore $#*! experience where one is left at the end of road in a Pay To Play Situation.
Cuz I gotta tell Ya, there is much much very more free journalism on line that literally smokes The Beasts article from hour to hour.
If I want to pay to read I'll throw my money at real writer journalists, no some off the skid's garbage $#*! rag.
See ya

When I feel bad about myself, I just think about all the people that read The Daily Beast. I have no idea how this is a legitimate media outlet. It's the real life news equivalent to the radio stations in GTA; if I didn't know better I'd think it was satire. Nonetheless, I'm sure readers of The Daily Beast enjoy sounding out the headlines between the breaks they take to clean the drool off of their chins.

Just read my 1st thing put out by the daily beast what a piece of garbage. Your staff needs to learn what class is. Michelle Obama wore some nice things but for the most part she was pretty frumpy. You didn't mention Hillary but she was a fashion disaster. Jill Biden knows how to dress like a lady and although once in a while her clothes make you say what is up with that outfit for the most part she looks great. You did fail us by not mentioning how our vice president who always looks like crap and wouldn't know how to dress nice if she tried. Mrs. Desantis wore what was appropriate for a motorcycle ride and she dresses nicely and appropriately. She is a pretty woman and looks good in whatever she throws on.Melonia trump was a total show stopper in anything she wore. You sounded like a woman who could only dream about looking half as nice as mrs. Desantis or mrs.Trump.

I read an article about the terrible plane crash that occurred in VA on Sunday. The title is "Crashed Plane Behind D.C. Chaos Owned by Big-Time MAGA Donor Couple". How pathetic? These people lost their daughter, 2yr old grand daughter, nanny & pilot, and all you care about is what party they donate too, & if they support the NRA? Shame on you, Daily Beast!

Should be investigated
January 15, 2024

Daily Beast had notified the Ukrainian government where to find journalists Gonzalo Lira who was incarcerated and died from illness.
I'm tired of so called Americans leaving Americans behind and even worse yet informing a dictator where to find a journalist that is critical of the Ukrainian government's situation.

I have no problem with political leaning either way in any articles across the media "sphere". But to say that this "News Organization" is just a little left leaning would be dishonest! Almost like the daily beast! Again i dont really lean one way or the other in most issues, but i am particularly disturbed at how much the truth is bent and skewed to fit these peoples narratives! They "cleverly" hide their disdain for anything (anyone) that dont fit their "world view" inside asinine articles made to persuade you to believe every half truth and obtuse opinions they spew... trash website... trash writing... they need to get a grip

Awful site
January 25, 2020

Articles are garbage. They give clickbait titles and flail to substantiate that point throughout the article whether it is a true claim or not. Why this site is one of the first suggestions on google is beyond me. It would be very unfortunate if people who didn't know any better considered this a factual source of information.

Straight Garbage. They will take your words and twist them to feed gas to a flame. They claim they are here to stand against bullies and hypocrites but the only hypocrite I see is this POS website. They claim to use facts but we'll call them white lies and if nobody questions it they'll continue to do it again. I read an article they made about a certain person and they completely switched up his words after. These lazy bigots probably make their article before even interviewing anyone. More crap from a toilet. One day you'll overflow

Don't believe anything they print. I have never read such blatantly planted disinformation in my life. Even more laughable is the advertising for an addiction recovery center (a worse racket than the war on drugs) featured on the same page- one of the industries that is threatened by the opiate curing benefits of kratom leaves. The Daily Beast is not news, They are paid off by advertisers to mislead you.

Journalism like this is really dangerous. The Daily Beast has a very clear agenda against Dem. Candidate Andrew Yang. Twisting the truth and mis- characterizing his platform. I will not be using this site and any sort of credible source of information.

A joke
March 28, 2020

Getting an article read here is a total joke. You are held captive by those ads with garbage that isn't true about the military and Trump and you can't finish the article without agreeing to subscribe to pop up add from them.

Everything Daily Beast writes is a total lie. Never click on their national enquirer type of site.
They must just get a few homeless people in a room and ask them what's going on in America.
Total idiots. I mean really. Very uneducated low class types writing lies daily. Lets NOT give them a platform.
#BAN DAILY BEAST!

The writing is done well but the content is garbage. The reviews seem to be biased and. Bull $#*! propaganda to create drama for people to share or discuss the site. Not even worth my time to get more in depth, if you want to read through some lame reviews that is your choice.

The internet version of SNL. No value at any level. Prey upon the feeble minded and gullible. I don't appreciate the agenda. I would rate it a zero but this site won't allow it so I rate it a begrudging 1. Provides people the wrong perspective. President Trump is a good leader. The Democrats may win the election but their platform, ideals and tactics are criminal. Fake News supports the foolish doctrine. More government. Soros globalists. Entitlements. I'm all for helping widows, orphans and cripples. They need it. Fake News and Democrats will ruin our nation. So I push back to prevent it. Maybe one day they'll see the light? Democrats didn't believe in the Affordable Care Act. They were pandering for votes. Otherwise they would have made a half-hearted effort to make it bi-partisan.

That's just one example. Don't get me started.
