Hitwise only reports US visitors too. When you take this kind of myopic view, its no surprise that the MSM sites are going to be on there. I'm more interested in global traffic and when you consider how many of those sites are banned outside the US, I can't help but wonder if there are better independent sites that are actually doing more traffic.</p> The problem with Comscore’s numbers is that it only looks at US visitors.
