“Fake News” has been a mantra on the right since President Trump started repeating the term during the 2016 presidential election. He ramped up his attacks on the media once he was President. Meanwhile, leftists have been attempting to turn the tables on this mantra by calling out everything they can as being “fake news” from the right.
Both sides are correct on this issue. Fake news is rampant on television and across the internet as tribal loyalties are considered more important than the sober truth on most issues. The left seems to have the market cornered on fake news, but the right is not above its use. This needs to change, but we cannot rely on mainstream media, leftist news outlets, or social media to make it happen.
The only way we can get back to delivering truth to the masses is if the old guard and rising stars of conservative media do everything we can to be completely honest in our reporting. This is more than just turning the tide on the leftist lurch that’s happening across America. It’s the only way we can put an end to progressive propaganda being the primary source of information that Americans consume.
At NOQ Report, we operate on three basic principles for delivering the news, opinions, and quotes that Americans need in order to understand what’s happening in the world around us.
First, we choose to only report news that is factual. Having a clear distinction between what is news and what is opinion is an absolute requirement of honorable journalists. This should be a nobrainer to all news outlets in America, but the spin doctors at most media outlets are pulling the strings on how to present facts in a way that supports their chosen ideology. We’ve seen this in its grossest form any time we turn on CNN or read a Buzzfeed article, but it’s also present at Fox News, Breitbart, and the Daily Caller. Intermingled with the facts, most news outlets sprinkle their spin to make their point even if the facts don’t necessarily match what they’re reporting. To make the media work properly again, news should be news. You will notice on many of our news articles, we add a section at the bottom labeled “My Take.” Whatever perspectives the author wants to contribute to the news, the can put it here. Everything above that section must be purely factual.
Second, editorial departments should be willing to follow an ideology rather than a tribe. To understand how this works, let’s look at the subject of bigotry. Just in the last week, we’ve highlighted multiple instances of bigotry being perpetrated by a wide variety of individuals. We called out Democrats when they demonstrated clear antisemitism, but we also noted when they took a stand against the bigotry of the Women’s March. We reported on the failed use of identity politics by Areva Martin, but we also called out Roseanne Barr for her false claims of antisemitism. Picking one side or the other is disingenuous. Instead, outlets need to be consistent with their ideology and call out anyone who goes against them while praising anyone who does right regardless of their political affiliation. Only then can we get out of the tribal mentality and focus on the ideas that can pull America back from the brink.
Finally, conservative news outlets must stop focusing only on the negative. But there are amazing things being done by Americans every day, and these things do not get nearly the same attention as the latest scandal that drives America’s faith in society deeper towards despair. I’m not suggesting everything needs to be happy-go-lucky, but pointing only at the bad perpetuates the hatred and anger Americans are feeling. We need to be uplifted, and there are plenty of uplifting stories that never get told by the media.
The ultimate responsibility of the press is to inform the people of the truth. In a world where everything is spun to support or oppose a party or a person, it’s no wonder “fake news” is so rampant. We choose to change that paradigm. Are Americans ready to demand more from their media outlets? You should.
I’m Tammy Rucker. Thank you for listening.

Most “Conservative” News Outlets Are on the Big Tech Teat
Not long ago, conservative media was not beholden to anyone. Today, most sites are stuck on the Big Tech gravy train.
I’ll keep this short. The rise of Pandemic Panic Theater, massive voter fraud, and other “taboo” topics have neutered a majority of conservative news sites. You’ll notice they are very careful about what topics they tackle. Sure, they’ll attack Critical Race Theory, Antifa, and the Biden-Harris regime, but you won’t see them going after George Soros, Bill Gates, the World Economic Forum, or the Deep State, among others.
The reason is simple. They are beholden to Big Tech, and Big Tech doesn’t allow certain topics to be discussed or they’ll cut you off. Far too many conservative news outlets rely on Google, Facebook, and Twitter for the bulk of their traffic. They depend on big checks from Google ads to keep the sites running. I don’t necessarily hold it against them. We all do what we need to do to survive. I just wish more would do like we have, which is to cut out Big Tech altogether.
We don’t get Google checks. We don’t have Facebook or Twitter buttons on our stories. We don’t have a YouTube Channel (banned), an Instagram profile (never made one), or a TikTok (no thanks, CCP). We’re not perfect, but we’re doing everything we can to not owe anything to anyone… other than our readers. We owe YOU the truth. We owe YOU the facts that others won’t reveal about topics that others won’t tackle. And we owe America, this great land that allows us to take hold of these opportunities.
Like I said, I don’t hold other conservative sites under too much scrutiny over their choices. It’s easy for people to point fingers when we’re not the ones paying their bills or supporting their families. I just wish there were more who would make the bold move. Today, only a handful of other major conservative news outlets have broken free from the Big Tech teat. Of course, we need help.
The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring proper news and opinions to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal or Bitcoin as well. Bitcoin: 3A1ELVhGgrwrypwTJhPwnaTVGmuqyQrMB8
Our network is currently comprised of six sites:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Freedom First Network
- Based Underground
- Uncanceled News
- Our Gold Guy
We are also building partnerships with great conservative sites like The Liberty Daily and The Epoch Times to advance the message as loudly as possible, and we’re always looking for others with which to partner.
Some of our content is spread across multiple sites. Other pieces of content are unique. We write most of what we post but we also draw from those willing to allow us to share their quality articles, videos, and podcasts. We collect the best content from fellow conservative sites that give us permission to republish them. We’re not ego-driven; I’d much rather post a properly attributed story written by experts like Dr. Joseph Mercola or Natural News than rewrite it like so many outlets like to do. We’re not here to take credit. We’re here to spread the truth.
While donations are the best way to help, you can also support us by buying through our sponsors:
- MyPillow: Use promo code “NOQ” to get up to 66% off AND you’ll be helping a patriotic, America First company.
- ZStack: Improve your immune system with the Z-Stack protocol or rejuvenate your body from vaccines or shedding with Z-DTox by Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
- OurGoldGuy: Tell them JD sent you in your request to buy gold and it will help us… AND (wait for it) you’ll be helping a patriotic, America First company.
- MyPatriotSupply: Stock up on long-term food, survival gear, and other things that you’ll need just in case things don’t recover and we keep heading towards apocalypse.
We know we could make a lot more money if we sold out like so many “conservative” publications out there. You won’t find Google ads on our site for a reason. Yes, they’re lucrative, but I don’t like getting paid by minions of Satan (I don’t like Google very much if you couldn’t tell).
Time is short. As the world spirals towards The Great Reset, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going. Our promise is this: We will never sell out America. If that means we’re going to struggle for a while or even indefinitely, so be it. Integrity first. Truth first. America first.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
