The David Horowitz Freedom Center, formerly the Center for the Study of Popular Culture (CSPC), is a conservative[2][3][4] anti-Islam[5] foundation founded in 1988 by political activist David Horowitz and his long-time collaborator Peter Collier. It was established with funding from groups including the John M. Olin Foundation, the Bradley Foundation and the Scaife Foundation.
It runs several websites and blogs, including the anti-Islam website FrontPage Magazine and the anti-Muslim blog Jihad Watch.[6][7][8] It has been described as a part of the counter-jihad movement.[9] It is designated as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.[10]
