Call the API
A live request. Paste it into a terminal and The American Conservative headlines come back as JSON.
Articles per day over the last 90 days. The busiest hour is 04:00 UTC — that is when the newsroom pushes its main batch.
The 1 hatched days are gaps in the upstream news archive, not quiet days at The American Conservative: the whole corpus dips on those dates. They are excluded from the median above.
When The American Conservative actually publishes, by hour of day (UTC) and by day of week —
measured from 462 timestamps, not from a schedule they advertise.
Sections
Sections come from the publisher's own markup, present on 98% of their articles.

Does The American Conservative have an official API?
Not a public one. This endpoint is the practical alternative: their articles as
structured JSON, with title, lead, publication time, section, byline and a link back to
the original.
How do I get their RSS feed?
Most publishers expose one at /rss or /feed, but feeds carry
only the last few dozen items and drop them within hours. This index keeps 462 of
their articles and lets you filter by date, language and section.
How many articles does The American Conservative publish per day?
5 on a median day, measured across 90 days.
Can I use this commercially?
The API is free and unauthenticated. What you may do with the content is between you
and the publisher: we return metadata, a lead paragraph and a link, not a licence.
