All the news they don’t find fit to print
The American news media is laregly becoming an outgrowth of the entertainment business, seeking to entertain viewers and readers rather than inform them. The audience is hand-held into proper displays of grief, shock, outrage and sympathy, without all the nasty self-determination that would normally inform such emotions and reactions. Once emotion and human interest stories completely take over (such as those horrid Hollywood ‘newsmagazines’) no objective news sources will be left.
Unless the Information Clearing House has its way. Admittedly slightly biased (but against the media more than anything else), ICH seeks to publish “the news you won’t find on CNN”. The site’s main focus is the US foreign policy, but stories often cover areas as well. Columns and editorial commentary are also provided on many of the issues.
As if this one site were not enough, ICH also links to other alternative news sources for cross-referencing and further exploration of news that really matters.
