‘Brussels signal’ is a far-right medium, it mixes factual reporting (by agencies like Reuters, Bloomberg, others) with in-house opinionated editorials which basically all adopt a strong nationalistic, Eurosceptic stance.

An English-language news platform with a rightwing mandate, Michael Mosbacher founded Brussels Signal with the backing of American political strategist Patrick Egan […]
A savvy media entrepreneur, Mosbacher previously helped found right-wing magazines such as Standpoint and The Critic. He served as editor of both projects before moving on to his next big idea.

Naturally, Black is a defender of the Trump years and hopes for a Republican victory come November.
