Like this post?
 |
I'm going to kick-start a little pilot project in the Politics Forum here. I'm looking for your help and appeal to all posters to include suggestions you may have for the following :
1) Alternative Political General Media Sources (Current News & Events, Alt-Watches, Videos, Podcasts) **I'd like to stay away from Blogs - but if you have a good one that you enjoy, please post it here anyway and we can always decide to include it.
2) Alternative Political Press/Articles (Media Centers, Alt Press Networks, Magazines Online, Websites, Organizations, Associations, EX: United Nations, Greenpeace)
3) Alternative Political Reference Sources (Encyclopedias, Dictionaries, Atlases, Directories, Guides, Indexes, Databases, etc.)
4) Alternative Political Scholarly Journals (Google Scholar, Scholar's Portal, Peer Reviewed stuff, non-peer reviewed stuff, free alternative journals and periodicals, etc.)
NB : Please feel free and welcome to include as much as you like, as at this point I'm looking for as much participation in this as possible.
I'll kindly reward each person that contributes to this thread with REPUTATION points.
THANKS EVERYONE!!

Well 2 off the top of my head that aren't you standard BBC, ect
Campaign for Liberty
http://www.campaignforliberty.com/
Articles and editorials generally advocating a very, very, weak federal government and very, very free market.
Al Jazeera. What? Yes as long as it's not about Israel Al Jazeera is like the BBC of the middle east
http://english.aljazeera.net/
Free Republic
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/*/index
genereally extremely conservative news message board. Not like a Goldwater conservative, more like a guns and god conservative. Jesus the posts on the transgendered girl elected homecoming queen made me want to cry. I read it out of morbid curiosity, if you read it for actual news I shall hit you
The Curvature. As they put it, a feminist perspective on politics and culture. But no, it's not militant feminist. As one of the articles on the main page shows it's a "boys will be boys is not a legitimate reason in court for excusing breaking into a girl's house and groping her" feminist
http://thecurvature.com/
Politifact: Sort through the bullshit from both sides
http://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/

Those are not extremely alternative, but just a simple starting point to get people away from CNN
Edit
I'd like to post a great example of free republic from yesterday when the result of the rejection of gay marriage in maine

About three people will be interested.
I'm not sure if anybody will be able to view it unless they are in the UK.
I tried. 
I guess most would be more interested in this:
http://democracylive.ning.com/
TheMadcapSyd, I know it's horrible but that persons comment made me laugh.
I'm sure he/she is a wicked conservative bore...but still...it made me chuckle. 
I hate this guys style (such as him still calling Iraq an "occupation" he seriously needs to catch up with events or atleast be reasonable)...
But I've gained some good info from it over the years...even so.
