The Washington Examiner is a right-wing political journal that goes into the areas you usually expect such publications to go into. It could be thought of as Townhall.com's more "respectable" cousin but even with that being said the site looks like a tabloid desperately trying to pass off as real news. It's not uncommon to see it used as a source among more extreme right-wingers who seem to like how proper the site pretends to be.
On science issues the site it pretty abysmal. Global warming denialism is rampant,[1] as is myths about DDT bans and other anti-environmentalist rhetoric,[2] leading to the site having a weird obsession with defending coal as being not all that damaging to the environment.[3] Also, Barack Obama only beat Mitt Romney because of the damned liberal media,[4] with implementing socialism being apart of Obama's (and liberals) master plan.[5][6] Basically the site is what you'd expect from a publication that makes most of its money from winding up wingnuts.
The print version of the Washington Examiner is given away to commuters at Washington, DC-area subway stations, where its main competitor is the Washington Post's Express.
