I'll understand if you don't add my site, as it is pretty small.

Great site, thanks! :thumbsup:

[indigobusiness]

33. Glad you like it.

Thanks for saying so.

[hiphopnation]

45. Jeez

I just realized it's YOUR site!! Fantastic work. Keep it up! :thumbsup:

[indigobusiness]

52. I'm really flattered

thanks again.

(there is sort of a page 2)

http://www.deepbluereview.blogspot.com/

[lostnfound]

64. It's interesting..a "full-frontal assault" --but a question

Why did you decide to link to the drudge report? I thought it was going to pull up something about how discredited drudge is; but actually it goes to drudge itself.

[indigobusiness]

68. You have a good point...

As a skewed news page, the Sludge Report is full of surpises...not...wait...make that "flaws"...
Forgive me for I know not what I do.

I just built the site out of a curiosity to learn html and to bug Drudge. It grew into the morbidly obese pig that it is now, and I have lost control of the monster.

I appreciate your question, perhaps I should find a scandalous Drudge rumor/news story to link his pics to.

Any, and all, criticism is welcome. Thanks for asking.

[seventhson]

10. Tarpley.com (Unauthorized Bush Bio with Nazi links history)

www.makethemaccountable.com

www.takebackthemedia.com

airamerica (site?)

[nostamj]

11. yes. need a "Radio" category too...

[ConsAreLiars]

25. "Internet Radio for the Left"

Rather than trying to list everything point to the comprehensive listing Gloria provides at:
http://www.zianet.com/insightanalytical/radio.htm

[smirkymonkey]

59. Actually, it's Tarpley.net

I tried .com and got something else not related.

[seventhson]

62. Thanks - sorry that is correct

www.tarpley.net

[LTR]

12. Gotta have this one

http://www.mediamatters.org

[GreenPartyVoter]

13. I have all kinds of links on my pages

The main page is about election reform, the second is about liberals and conservatives and activism sites, the third is a very short page listing media resources, and the last is a collection of Christian links which support socialist and Green points of view.

You are bound to find something useful there, I am sure. :)

14. Paul Thompson's complete 9-11 timeline

28. Check out Arts & Letters Daily - a great selection of essays and

serious commentary culled from journals and magazines.



http://www.aldaily.com/:thumbsup:

16. I don't know what category this would fall into, but

www.bushflash.com is an excellent site.

[rainy]

17. commondreams.org

I can't beleive you all missed my favorite. I visit this page everyday for news around the world and commentary.

[nostamj]

22. duh! slapping forehead

NOW you see why I posted this!

[galadrium]

18. Here is a shameless site plug

My own website forum has grown a great deal in the last month. If you are interested in civil debate you should check out www.liberalnet.com/forums. I don't censor so-called "disruptors." In fact I have one conservative member who posts almost as much as I do. I believe we can beat conservative arguments based on logic and reason, not controlling the medium.

[CalebHayes]

19. My site of coarse www.anti-bush.com

and my blog http://anti-bush.blogspot.com

[hang a left]

21. ........

that's a must!

[Luminous Animal]

I am planning to attend as many screenings of F911 this weekend and was going to hand out my own list. This will help a lot thanks to DU!

For news and activism:

I am also going to register voters.

Good luck on the revue, it sounds great. If I weren't 3000 miles away, I'd attend.

[nostamj]

50. thanks, and... there will be a VIDEO

for those that can't attend. watch for an announcement sometime in August...

[Cynicelle]

51. Informed Comment

www.juancole.com

[southlandshari]

53. what about antiwar.com?

It was as important to me as food, shelter and oxygen in the weeks after 9/11, and I still check it regularly for a good sampling of news and views from around the world.

[proud patriot]

54. Here's a page I highly reccomend

It's a collection of LTTE from around the country over
the last 3 and half years .

58. Two more

www.onlinejournal.com and www.jimhightower.com

[hansolsen]

60. I like Juan Coles's site

Here is the link:

http://www.juancole.com/

I describe the site this way. Cole covers the same beat as Tom Friedman at the NYTs. Friedman is 20% facts and 80% opinion. Cole is 80% facts on the middle east, and 20% opinion.

[Jacobin]

61. This one is a must

http://www.billmon.org/

[nostamj]
