| The Wolf User Info... | Hopefully not Chuck news or the A-ss Channel...Teh channels are mirrors of each other with no or little original content Is there a Local Podcast/ Net video that covers local news? - Fri, 21 Jul 2006 4:14am | ||
| Jeremy Baker User Info... | Listen to Tasha on The ZONE! I dig, nealenews.com fark.com a sprinkle of Monday and the Times-Colonist (even if this happends http://web.bcnewsgroup.com/portals-code/list.cgi?paper=117&cat=48&id=692969&more= ) publiceyeonline.com has lots of good local politics and media news. Sean breaks stories like this: http://www.publiceyeonline.com/archives/001638.html#more The Tyee has some good stuff too sometimes. - Fri, 21 Jul 2006 10:37am Edited: Fri, 21 Jul 2006 10:48am | ||
| moron User Info... | Victoria News is actually pretty decent for a local rag, waaaaaaaaaaaay better than the superfluous syndicated broken down infotainment vehicle that is the Times Colonist. For international stuff I tend to scan: Google News (for some random headlines) http://dahrjamailiraq.com/hard_news/ for Iraq stuff http://www.whatreallyhappened.com for strife news (just ignore *all* Rense, libertyforum and indiemedia links and local links) http://www.antiwar.com for more US centric political stuff http://joystiq.com for gaming news http://theregister.co.uk for IT stuff http://www.we-make-money-not-art.com/ for cool art related news Cheers - Fri, 21 Jul 2006 1:05pm | ||

| Jeremy Baker User Info... | great call on the POE news... that one is a gooder. Blog Wars in pretty crazy for the fucked up things of the planet (and uhhh maybe some porn too). - Fri, 21 Jul 2006 5:23pm Edited: Fri, 21 Jul 2006 5:24pm | ||
| Mr. Hell User Info... | The first story on POE news is about a funeral for an aborted fetus. Where the hell did they get that? Sounds like they robbed a fetus from a hospital. Now who are the bad peoples? edit: Ahh, they got it from an anonymous pathologist. They probably fire-bombed his house after he handed it over. - Fri, 21 Jul 2006 5:43pm Edited: Fri, 21 Jul 2006 5:45pm | ||
| lonemonk User Info... | Sooke Mirror (Need a local fix) http://www.bbc.co.uk/ http://www.cbc.ca/ (Wikipedia news) http://www.drudgereport.com : This site should be much better than it is, but at least it has a single page packed with links to many news agencies/journalists. Drudge himself is a dumbass right wing fucker. When you want to read all the headlines that the whitehouse hacks are looking at, go here. This site is more of a guilty pleasure. http://www.slashdot.org for geek shit. Favourites: http://www.theonion.com (Ironically, its more truthful than real news) moron, I totally agree on the Victoria News stuff. For that kind of publication its well done. TC is a steaming turd smeared onto newsprint. Worst-Paper-Ever! - Sat, 22 Jul 2006 2:30am Edited: Sat, 22 Jul 2006 2:40am | ||
| hurtsmyears User Info... | i find http://www.indymedia.org quite enlightening. it's unfortunate, however, that most of the canadian chapters are dormant, or close to it. - Sat, 22 Jul 2006 11:36am | ||

| E Ozzmond User Info... | I find that if you try to read between the lies of most Western media, and info on sites like http://www.aljazeera.com, or http://www.znet.com, you can get a somewhat balanced perspective. - Fri, 4 Aug 2006 12:03am | ||
