NewsMax is run by, and is slanted toward Repugnicans. That said, it's PRETENDING to be a NEWS organization. The article was an interview of the independent pollster John Zogby, who's merely reporting the results of his polls.
If NewsMax was reporting a huge Republican sweep, they'd OBVIOUSLY be partisan and lying. NewsMax is going public.
Maybe you can buy some stock!

"Richard Mellon Scaife has a stake in NewsMax. According to the prospectus, Scaife owns about 7.2 percent of NewsMax Media, expected to drop to 5.8 percent after the IPO. That's not exactly surprising, given that CEO Christopher Ruddy used to work for Scaife at his newspaper near Pittsburgh. Scaife's official stake -- and you have to wonder, given Scaife's reputation as the moneybag behind a lot of hardline conservatives, if he didn't kick in even more than his official share of the company indicates -- makes him NewsMax's third largest shareholder. At the top is Ruddy, with 32.6 percent (27.1 percent after the IPO), followed by Michael Ruff (with 25 percent, or 20.3 percent after the IPO), described in the prospectus as a former real estate developer in Dallas and current president of Icarus Investments, a venture capital firm. There are a total of 190 stockholders of record." |
