The Free Press, the “heterodox” and anti-woke digital media outlet recently purchased by Paramount Skydance for $150 million, saw its web traffic surge in the month before its founder, Bari Weiss, was named the new editor-in-chief of CBS News.
According to The Righting, a news site that analyzes right-wing media, the stridently pro-Israel publication drew 5.3 million visits during September, representing a 44 percent year-over-year increase.
