Does anyone know anything about this publication? I stumbled across them while doing some research and found this article: http://www.ibdeditorials.com/IBDArticles.aspx?id=305420655186700

I find the information disturbing, but don't know if the source is reputable. Can anyone confirm IBD as reputable or tabloid?

IBD is Investors Business Daily.

They are one of the top business daily newspapers.

Looks like the editorial is worth investigating. Editorials always have the potential of being unfounded attacks.

I've heard stuff like this on the Mark Levin show. I think that there is a lot of truth to it and I doubt that a publication like IBD would risk putting something like that out there if there were not facts to back it up.

I think IBD a wonderful newspaper and have subscribed for years. The editorial slant is definitely anti-big government, free market, pro- little government, even libertarian. It has a wonderful Leaders and Success page which describes successful people in detail. It's required reading for my 8th grader. Oh, and it also teaches you how to invest in stocks if you have that interest. It's a great paper for keeping track of Obama and what his "tax cuts" will really mean for us in the middle class.

I was skeptical at first, only because it seemed sooo scarry. But then I recently saw it in IBD, a very reputable publication.

but IBD has been around for years and years. They now have Pulitzer-winning political cartoonist Michael Ramirez working for them. He used to be with the LA Times. I love catching up on his stuff at their website.
