3. Democracy Now!
Paul Jensen of the PenDems suggested we check out this website. Traditional news organizations, although many do great reporting, sometimes have their content and delivery modified to get higher ratings, or better serve the needs of corporate stockholders. Even news from public broadcasting isn't always unbiased--for example, the entire board of directors of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which is a major funder of public broadcasting, must be approved by Congress? Check out Democracy Now! -- it is totally funded by listeners and viewers.

There have been many recent articles about former Sen. George McGovern, you can search for them on the site. Here's a great interview from Nov 21:
