Looks like a lot of inspiration borrowed from producthunt? Granted you could probably say that about any site with the ability to contribute a link and upvote content.
What Grasswire is attempting to create is the furthest thing from what current media outlets offer. That's why it's relevant.
And for accusing someone of dropping links you sure seem to drop a lot of links to your news site Newslines. Newslines seems to be little more than a celebrity gossip engine. Are you attacking Grasswire because you see them as a competitor?
