Your input requested - Solar Bus "Real News Network" page

[garybeck]

Hi all,

Enough people are going to the Solar Bus site and expressing frustration with the regular media, that I'm putting together a list of Real News sources. I know this has been done before and there are other lists... Can you take a moment and tell me your favorite few web sites for Real News (notice I'm not calling it "alternative news").

I don't want to clutter this page with tons of links. I'm thinking 15 or 20 will be the most I want. After I get the list I'll probably add a sentence or two describing each site.

The page is under development here:

http://www.solarbus.org/election/realnews.html

Please let me know your favorite Real News links.

Thanks,
Gary
