Right Wing Watch

Right Wing Watch is an initiative by People For the American Way (PFAW) focused on keeping track of and revealing the actions and statements of right-wing activists and organizations to highlight their extreme agendas. Our team of researchers observes a wide range of broadcasts, emails, and websites, applying their knowledge of right-wing movements to break down and share this information with the media, partners, and the public. By bringing attention to the activities of the right-wing movement, we aim to uncover the potential dangers posed by their extreme and intolerant agendas to our nation. We do not support the views of the groups we investigate.
