      They used to be very good, but Ben Norton was their biggest asset and he left when Blumenthal became a right wing anti vax crank. Ben Norton now runs Geopolitical Economy though. Grayzone has the occasional good article and some good coverage but they're a mixed bag now.

      Very mixed since Max Blumenthal came out as an anti-vaxxer. It got so bad that Ben Norton left and started his own news space too.

      I haven't kept up with them all that much, but they seem to be a bit of a mixed bad. Generally not all that bad on foreign policy, but pretty shit otherwise. I think Max Blumenthal went all anti-vax, Covid conspiracy theorist and if I'm not mistaken Anya Parampil is anti-trans. Ben Norton, who was probably the most consistently good out of the bunch, ended up leaving. And I kinda forget about Aaron Mate, but I don't remember him having bad takes, but again I haven't closely followed whats come out of Grayzone for the past year or two.
