If you read their publications and their web publishing, you will find real news that few if any other publications cover. If you're going to critique the value or quality of their reporting it would be only fair to do so on a case by case basis. I'm not disputing the fact that they have an agenda, and that they cover news related to that agenda; but that does not negate some good objective reporting on important issues and events from time to time. And they are not alone. A lot of good solid journalism, investigatitive, writing and photography, is being done by various NPOs out of necessity. The mainstream media is easily fixated on the latest "hot" story and allows a lot of important stories to go unnoticed.
