No, but different members use the Gulch for different things. You may want to take a quick read through the Gulch FAQ: https://www.galtsgulchonline.com/faq

  Thanks, Scott, I have re-read it many times, and will again.
  
  * Galt's Gulch is now the largest active online community focused on the propagation of Ayn Rand's ideas and is the new official Atlas Shrugged™ "Collective." Galt's Gulch is a community of like-minded individuals who come together regularly to share interesting content and ideas with each other and debate politics, economics, philosophy and more. *

    Like minded does not mean clones. We are humans first, and all with varying backgrounds, educations interests and life experiences. The vast majority here
    Are huge Ayn Rand fans.

You have free will to participate in posts as you see fit.
“Got a question about Objectivism? Ayn Rand? Politics? Life ? Dinner? Or...anything else for that matter. The Gulch wants to hear it.” I case you missed or did not understand the Ask the gulch banner.
I suspect that if the MSM actually did honest, unbiased journalism , less news stories would be posted.

I am partly responsible for the prevalence of news aggregation on Galt's Gulch Online. While that is not the explicit purpose of the site, the news serves to remind us how prophetic Ayn Rand was. We are constantly comparing Atlas Shrugged to Atlas Shrugged ... Now Non-Fiction. Selling the Atlas Shrugged Now Non-Fiction T-shirt available at the galtsgulchonline website is one of the purposes of the web site, and I push traffic to this web site so that both this web site and the one that I advertise on this web site (another of the web site's purposes) get mutual traffic.

What better way to objectively view the world as it is now, to view and quantify what is really happening.
Objectivism wasn't meant for hiding one's head in the sand of objectivism but to view the world through it; and yes, from time to time we must deal with the observable that is not provable, to develop likely theory and possibilities because that is exactly what the world is showing us now.

...and none of it abides by any known philosophy,.. only chaos and a rejection of all philosophy.
