t legitimately call all of these media outlets "independent media." We wish to provide you with a variety of media outlets so that you can read about more than just what Fox/MSNBC/CBS determine is newsworthy. Getting your news from a variety of sources helps you manuever through the "spin." The list below is a good place to start, anyone should feel free to add other sources by pressing the edit key in the lower left hand corner, or by suggesting the link be added
here
Air America Radio - Air America is the Left's answer to "right" talk radio. Website for the network of stations include links to all of the commentators' individual shows and corresponding websites, blogs, etc. Talk about information!
Independent Media Center - born out of the Seattle protests that shut down the World Trade Organization meetings in 1999, this is grassroots activist media at its finest. Check out the left sidebar for links to local IMCs all over the world.
Narco News Bulletin - reporting on the Drug War and Democracy from Latin America
arXiv.org - An e-print service allows scientific papers to be posted and accessed on the internet free of charge. ArXiv is an e-print service in the fields of physics, mathematics, non-linear science, computer science, and quantitative biology. These papers tend to be highly technical, but are not subject to Peer Review here, though many go on to be published in peer-reviewed journals.
Climate Ark - The Climate Ark is a Climate Change Portal and Search Engine dedicated to promoting public policy that addresses global climate change through reductions in carbon dioxide and other emissions, renewable energy, energy conservation and ending deforestation.
Left Turn Magazine is a bi-monthly magazine put out by a network of anti-capitalists who are involved in struggles against globalization, imperialism and war, police brutality and for workers' rights. It covers social movements all over the world.
Al-Jazeera - reporting on the ground from the Middle East. They cover more Middle East news than any other news source. As the English version of an Arabic media outlet, it is as close to primary source Arabic news a non-Arab speaker can find.
Control Room is a documentary about Al-Jazeera and is available at many independent video stores.
The Economist (UK) - Not just about economics. This newspaper (in the US we'd call it a magazine) covers all sorts of world news and is one of the best out there. It does not follow the US convention of attempting to excise editorial content from reporting, and its editorial line is pretty much orthodox neoliberalism.
The Financial Times - reporting focuses on economic news. They're the best source for breaking news on the international financial institutions like the IMF and World Bank, and they are often the only corporate paper that covers regional free trade agreements. Their audience is capitalists, but the reporting is good and lacks the irresponsible editorializing that plagues the Wall Street Journal. Their coverage of Iraq and the U.S. economy has also been very good.
BBC - their coverage is hit and miss. BBC has better international coverage than U.S. papers, but their coverage of latin America is often lacking. For example, their recent reporting on Haiti is pretty terrible. Their website is updated constantly and free from advertisements.
Nature - the premier journal, along with Science, in the natural sciences. Many articles require a subscription, but computers on campus can use a site license which provides access to all
Nature articles from 1997 to the present.
Some articles (and even short fiction) are aimed at lay readers, some require a technical background.
Science - the premier journal, along with Nature, in the natural sciences. Many articles require a subscription, but computers on campus can use a site license which provides access to

Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting - now that you've read your news, read FAIR's commentary on the coverage, including their exposure of lies the corporate media tells.
Project Censored - the news that didn't make The News, and why it didn't.
PR Watch - keeping tabs on the professionals whose full-time job is shaping the news coverage in their employers' interests.
Web based journals of activists, journalists and academics are becoming an increasingly powerful force in the media world. Here is a space for people to share interesting and well-done Web Log news resources, soon they will be hopefully organized by category with a nice description. But these are hard to use as resources because of the sheer volume of sites listed.
