Very weird analysis... Tries to call volunteer editors the proletariat who aren't getting paid. Tbf this unknown site made me wonder if it was Russian propaganda

It'd be great if they no longer need the money, but I'm afraid I'm gonna need to see some actual evidence first rather than the word of a news site I've never heard of before. Perhaps this information is publicly available. Linking to it would be very nice if it is.

From Wikipedia: "UnHerd was founded in 2017 by the billionaire hedge fund manager Sir Paul Marshall as its owner and publisher and conservative British political activist Tim Montgomerie as its editor. Marshall has invested over £50m in GB News. Unherd's marketing describes it as a website for "people who dare to think for themselves."

Just for context, GB News is a Fox News for British people. No clue about their claims either way.

You could say that the website is Unherd of to you.
