Step 1
Start by getting the daily highlights from RealClearPolitics (RCP) and the Drudge Report. Both sites aggregate stories from liberal and conservative media outlets, selecting the best and most relevant pieces.
-
Step 2
Choose to read conservative newspapers. Big cities have conservative papers that compete with the established ones such as the New York Post and the Washington Times. If you are a college student, check to see if your school has a newspaper funded by the Collegiate Network (CN).
-
Step 3
Subscribe to conservative magazines such as the National Review (biweekly), Weekly Standard, American Conservative (biweekly), American Spectator (monthly), First Things (monthly) or The New Criterion (monthly, except summers). Each magazine emphasizes different aspects of conservatism. For example, First Things focuses on religion and promoting Judeo-Christian values while The New Criterion covers arts and the intellectual life from a conservative perspective.
-
Step 4
Supplement your reading of conservative news with conservative television news. The Fox News Channel is the place to find it. Go to their website for breaking news updates if you are away from a TV.
-
Step 5
Read opinion articles, editorials and conservative columns. The best opinion pieces are well-packaged news articles. For example, the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal is an authority on conservative issues.
