    Interesting data, but the verbiage supplied by the left-wing site "The Righting" was way out of sync even with their own table that they supply on their website (https://www.therighting.com/october-2020-top-20-traffic-to-conservative-websites) and which you show in this article.  Take a close look at that table!!!!  Yes, there were declines in unique visitors to five -- count 'em, 5 -- of the listed websites (several of which are mostly pay sites), but 14 other sites had big, even HUGE, increases, such as:


    The Blaze +48%


    Washington Times +48%


    Breitbart +59%


    National Review +24%


    Western Journal +68%


    Gateway Pundit +202%


    Federalist +211%


    PJ Media +291%


    Bongino +1,101%


    Townhall +85%


    CNS +187%


    RedState +48%


    Hannity +35%


    That's from THEIR table!  In other words, these sites garnered fresh eyes (new unique visitors) during a period of big political news. This is EXACTLY what one would expect.


    Of course, a huge consideration, especially for advertisers, is overall viewing, not just cume unique viewers.  It doesn't appear that The Rightist wants to talk about that.  Nor does The Rightest seem to have interest in showing corresponding results for leftward websites.
