Analysis / Bias
DeSantis Daily does not publish original news stories but rather interjects right-wing biased opinions around news stories. All stories favor the right and often harshly denigrate the left, such as this: Democrats want to do one thing to Ron DeSantis that crossed this big red line. This story does not use hyperlinked sourcing on the information they are referencing.
Editorially, all stories strongly favor the right such as this A federal judge just handed Ron DeSantis a victory in his battle against the Left’s woke agenda, and Democrats realized they’re in trouble over the reason Kansas voters gave Ron DeSantis a standing ovation. In general, many stories on this website advance right-wing conspiracy theories and propaganda while sometimes using poor sources such as Breitbart.
