SW: clarified connection to Western Jounralism Center with source and reference
'''WorldNetDaily''' (WND) is an internet news and commentary site founded in May 1997 by [[Joseph Farah]], a former editor of several major-market daily newspapersand a founder of the conservative non-profit [Western Journalism Center]]. The site originated as a for-profit arm of the Center according to an October 1, 1999 story at the site, "[http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=17207 World's 'No. 1 website' goes for-profit]."
The WND mission statement describes its role as a watchdog only on government: "WorldNetDaily.com's editorial policy reflects the old-fashioned notion that the principal role of the [[free press]] in a free society is to serve as a watchdog on government - to expose [[corruption]], fraud, waste and abuse wherever and whenever it is found."
