IS REDSTATE THE PREMIER WINGNUT BLOG?

By premier I don't mean page views, I mean connections to the GOP Noise Machine. I noted below the RS seems to have at least a semi-official status and today I learned that it's also the recipient of wingnut welfare:

First, a number of you want to know why we need money if we're connected to
Eagle Publishing. That one, to me, is easy -- Eagle contributed $55,000.00 to
the redesign process already. RedState earns Eagle exactly zero dollars.


From SOURCEWATCH:
Eagle Publishing is a conservative publishing company that was run by Thomas L. Phillips until 1999.

On its website it states that it is "considered by many America's leading conservative publishing company ... Our full range of products and services provide independent thinkers with perspective and solutions favoring the traditional American values of free enterprise, limited government, and individual liberty." [1]

It is a parent company of conservative book publisher Regnery Publishing. It also publishes the magazine Human Events.
