Get your News right here in one place
This site was brought to my attention a while ago, and I am sure a lot of DU'ers know about it. For those of you who do not here you go:

  • Solarbus RealNews

    Noticed that DU is on there with the other sites that we like also take a look at donating via buying a tshirt or bumper sticker they are HUGH!!11

    I have made it my homepage.

    I just wish they were linked to truthout.org

    Thank you! I agree too that I wish they'd include truthout.org.

    editing to add, and now I can stop lurking here, being an uninvited and unwelcome libertarian. TOO cool, thanks for that psa! :)

    2. Nice to have all those links in one place, but
    my eyes, my eyes! They need a serious redesign. Those colors make it so hard to read.

    11. If you increase text size, it is much easier to read....

    I turned 40 a few months ago and increasing text size is my new 'trick' --

    14. Just crossed that barrier too.

    If ya got a mouse with 4 buttons you can usually program the extrie button to the key combination for "increase text size." In Firefox itz {ctrl}++ Werkz great.

    That's great! My favorites were there!

    Bradblog, Raw, DU, Mediamatters, afterdowningstreet. Conyers too.

    7. Nominated
    That is almost like an everchanging newspaper. It is another fine example of the power of one and will lead to other websites that also compete with newspapers for eyeballs.

    Remember that if you hold down the "control" key and move the wheel on your mouse you can change the size of what you are reading.

    This is a great find and something I can send to others that might want to get news from the Internet. Nomination #1.

    12. Bookmarked and recommended. I didn't know - should've.
    It should be on the home page - especially as LBN is also included.
    I would have prefered truthout over bradblog, and Bartcop as well - but still - its a great idea.
