Enemies of Reason - This made me laugh at the ridiculous state of our mainstream newspapers. These papers are popular!

Something implying that darkies took the blonde child? Check. Some lies about immigration statistics? Check. A wilfully ignorant front-page rant that a child of five could dismantle? Check. A free DVD that no-one wants? Check. A picture of a pre-pubescent boy from the same newspaper that would vilify paedophiles? Check. A bit of poppy fascism? Check. JACKPOT!

Do blogs get any better than this? Im yet to find one. http://enemiesofreason.blogspot.com/

Example from Enemies of Reason

Fear. Fear! Fear about wrinkles. You're getting old! And look, the bloody Poles are procreating! The selfish bastards, having children which are just a strain on the NHS and schools rather than paying for the vast pension pot of an ageing population who... er, read the Daily Mail and have wrinkles. But there's a picture of Kate & Gerry to lighten the mood. Some new bollocks theory about what someone might have thought a few months ago but isn't sure about now. Who did they sell her to? Darkies probably! Coming over to steal our babies! But not the Polish ones, obviously.

Blog - Enemies of Reason - Great Analysis

http://enemiesofreason.blogspot.com/

It really is amazing how many fantastic blogs are out there if you keep searching. Look at the links and followers for a start, but this blog seems to have MORE media analysis than tabloid watch. Both are brilliant, both deserve a read and a follow.

Wikileaks - A Brief Outline

http://www.wikileaks.com/wiki/Wikileaks:Submissions

Wikileaks accepts classified, censored or otherwise restricted material of political, diplomatic or ethical significance. Wikileaks does not accept rumour, opinion or other kinds of first hand reporting or material that is already publicly available.

All staff who deal with sources are accredited journalists. All submissions establish a journalist-source relationship. Online submissions are routed via Sweden and Belgium which have first rate journalist-source shield laws. In Sweden, not only does the law provide protection against any official inquiry into journalists’ sources, but it allows a source whose identity has been revealed without permission to initiate criminal prosecutions against an unfaithful journalist who has breached his or her promise of confidentiality.

Wikileaks records no source identifying information and there are a number of submission mechanisms available to deal with even the most sensitive national security information.

Wikileaks is the winner of the 2008 Economist Index on Censorship Freedom of Expression award and the 2009 Amnesty International human rights reporting award (New Media).

Wikileaks has a history breaking major stories in every major media outlet and robustly protecting sources and press freedoms. No source has ever been exposed and no material has ever been censored. Since formation in early 2007, WikiLeaks has been victorious over every legal (and illegal) attack, including those from the Pentagon, the Chinese Public Security Bureau, the Former president of Kenya, the Premier of Bermuda, Scientology, the Catholic & Mormon Church, the largest Swiss private bank, and Russian companies. WikiLeaks has released more classified intelligence documents than the rest of the world press combined.

This just shows the US is not always the promoter od democratic and peaceful negotiations when it comes to certain areas of the Planet.
