Stormfront, founded early on the web, still draws over 200,000 daily page views

Evidence

The quotations that begin this chapter are from members of one such group, Stormfront, which is something of a World Wide Web clearinghouse for racist groups and white pride organizations. Stormfront was the first major racist group to take advantage of the web (Schafer, 2002), and it remains a very popular site, with over 150,000 members and over 200,000 page views every day. Almost half of Stormfront’s visitors are from the United States, with the remainder predominantly from Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Canada, and Belgium. — Roderick M.
