T-Squared: More Traffic — and Money — in 2012
Before we get on with what will surely be a happy new year — right, 83rd Lege? — let's pause a moment to celebrate the Tribune's considerable accomplishments of the happy old year. In 2012, I'm pleased to report, the Trib logged record site traffic, with significant increases in unique visitors and visits, and blew through what we all agreed was an overly ambitious fundraising goal, exceeding our projections for major gifts, membership and corporate underwriting.

Even those this is a pretty liberally-slanted site, I like the design and that real information is actually given in most of the articles. Most liberal sites don't bother giving their sources or the data, they just give an opinion.
When I read stuff from this site, I feel I'm given decent information and insight into more grounded liberal arguments than the off-the-wall ones that Daily Beast writers seem to write. (Or even worse Daily Kos)
I used to read LA times and US today, but their bias went over the top. They stopped in many articles giving any real information so all you read was pure bias. That's useless. So even though I'm a staunch fiscal conservative, I find this site a good source of information presented with a nice format. The biased is not over the top. I know other conservatives who read this site too. I guess it's a balance between being biased, but still informing people. The Texas Tribune seems to walk that line delicately enough to draw even fiscal conservative readers like myself.

This is a great site to see what the Stalinistas are thinking. 1913 etc. all over again.
