I've lost respect for the Paulick report.Home of the witch hunters.Also,his site is nothing but links to other mags,sites,etc.So they do all the work and reporting and he just provides links.Now I wonder if he is sharing his advertising revenue with the sites he links to.He bitches about companies like TVG and Youbet not sharing their revenue with the tracks,yet he is doing the exact same thing they are doing.

how much revenue can a site like that really have? Or does he have a magazine too?

Don't know.There is no magazine that I know of.Ray just sits in Lex and provides links and the occasional commentary to stir up the pot.

I could be COMPLETELY wrong.. but I just dont see how a horse racing website could make much money through advertising. Obviously a site like equibase, brisnet, drf, and the youbets of the world could make money because people pay for info.. But I would assume a Paulick report, or equidaly or stuff like that would be more of a service for the customers than a money maker. Just not much of a reading base out there..
