Well back in the day Firing Line with William F Buckley, The McLaughlin Group, and even Tony Brown's Journal. Today Jerry O'Doyle, Dennis Miller, Raleigh James, Kim Komando, Coast to Coast am radio, and all local only sport shows. NRA mag called Freedom First. I use Mike's Radio World on the net to pick up citytalk fm 105.9 out of Liverpool, midwest radio out of county Mayo Ire, KDKA 1020 am out of Pittsburgh, WFNZ 610 am out of Charlotte NC, any Nevada radio, and 1290 am out of Tucson AZ. But I will check out alot of the sites on this thread, cool.

Man, took ya long enough!

[sarcasm]

And yes, if you thought that asking Sarah Palin that question was "gotcha journalism", then you can have no issue whatsoever with my answer. If I say I read "all of 'em" then you have to accept that; to question it at all, or to ask me to name one, would be an attack on me personally.

The interns and webmasters at these sites do a great job trolling through the international wire services every day (left, right, middle), so I don't have to:

www.rense.com
www.infowars.com RSS
www.truthnews.us RSS
www.propagandamatrix.com RSS
www.thepowerhour.com
www.wnd.com (#1 NoBama) RSS
www.theinternationalforecaster.com (economic) RSS

Rense Radio throws a few UFO articles in for entertainment, like its competitors Art Bell & George Noory, but the rest is hardcore. And it has the funniest political art on the web, banned by the US State Dept.

For police state news focus: www.thenewspaper.com RSS

If you want my own RSS of major news stories and original news:

http://piratenews-tv.blogspot.com/
http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/piratenewsrss/messages
www.myspace.com/piratenewsctv
www.piratenews.org/weblog.html

www.theonion.com (RSS) is also more accurate than many news corporations.

The Hell it's not. Just because it doesn't march in lockstep with you on ONE ISSUE doesn't mean it isn't. It's from Orange County, California, the right wing capital of the Universe. I read its editorial page often. Every day, almost every word there favors a right wing cause or issue. It constantly attacks middle of the road pragmatists as far out lefties, making no distinction about folks who really are far out lefties.

Btw, despite the source, and the fact that as even PN admits, some of those folks coverage is just plain bullshit - those are some pretty good resources as a beginning.

Just make double-damn sure to cross-confirm anything you see there, sturgeons law certainly applies and whatnot.

But you *do* find some slam-bang stuff in there, especially if you're lookin for political dirt.

These days, the way "news" is - well, there's no such thing, it's people telling you stuff that maybe happened today that THEY want to pin your attention to, giving you THEIR perception of it, in an attempt to manipulate public opinion to be more favorable of their own causes and sponsors products.

That ain't news - used to be AP wire from the press side wasn't too bad (the cut-down just the facts plainwire prior to local color and spin) but they dumped that a couple years ago, and non newsies didn't have access anyhow.

These days news is what YOU go looking for cause it interests you - and for most folk that means seeking someone who already agrees with them and tells them what they wanna hear, rather than informing them of anything, so it's just more ego-stroke than information, and both far ends of the political spectrum love it cause they don't have to investigate, or even start with the truth, they can just make shit up, and the adoring masses will gobble it.

I will however add Indymedia and Pravda to this list, the latter cause despite not taking themselves at all seriously, there's occasionally a damn good journalistic piece by americans who dare not try to get it run here.

I get my news from RWED :)

I have a friend who keeps sending me links from http://www.americanfreepress.net/, any thoughts? She says it was pretty balanced and lately is getting a nazi infiltration. Her take is that this is done deliberately to discredit something...

Every serious conspiracy theorist I know either works for, or worked for the govt., usually somewhere high up
