As I see it there is the corporatist mainstream media fully loaded with lies and propaganda. Then there is the alternate independent media which speaks truth to power eg Information Clearing House, The Grey Zone, The Breach, Strategic Culture Foundation. Consortium News , Yves Engler , Noam Chomsky, Redacted and Unz Review and many, many more . There are numerous excellent blogs on Substack including Seymour Hersh, Piers Robinson, Matthew Ehret, Cynthia Chung, Arron Mate, and Ben Norton.
Canada has very few good independents, the USA has many more some of the best are international, Pepe Escobar, Alistair Crooke, and the Duran.
It is very important to support independent media financially as I think it is going to eventually replace the crippled MSM.
The MSM in Canada receives government subsidies and is in turn a government apologist.
It is very important these days to multi-source our news and opinion and cross reference. Fortress North America is very much a propaganda ghetto. Having an objective world view is now more critical than ever .
Isn't western media, with a few small groups, all the same, Robert?

All so true, Robert, an excellent post, thorough as regards non MSM. But with all these great sources what ever changes? Therein lies the problem.
Its a long haul, there are no magic bullets.
