We all know how hard it is to get decent information about current and important events that doesn't dribble out of the mouth of some lobbyist. Surfing around the other day I came across this site:
http://newstandardnews.net/?action=show_homepage
An interesting, homespun, slightly populist view of the news with a lot of accurate background info on most stories that only get a small blurb in the mainstream press. Seems like a groundlevel effort. Maybe you like it maybe you don't. Do you have a good source of news and info that IS NOT mainstream and you feel is fairly accurate most of the time? How 'bout posting it here?
Happy New Year All!
