It used to be well-accepted that to gain good understanding of a subject -- any subject -- you need to consult multiple sources. Even moreso in political matters where point-of-view is so important. Yet, all of our news comes from pretty much one source. The corporate media, which is pretty much a mouthpiece of the corporate elite.
We the people need alternate sources of news and commentary. I've already linked AlterNet.org and believe it to be an important source for us. Now I have found another source I will be consulting regularly: IPS.
Check it out. It gives an avowed Southern Hemisphere perspective on international news. It is supported by a number of governments and international organizations, with the notable exception of the United States.
