1. Thanks for the heads up

I'm always up for different viewpoints. Considering the blatant propaganda we get from US media it will be interesting to compare. I would say the contributors you listed are more honest and accurate than any I see on commercial US media.

Other than that, you'll get Ven government propaganda if that is your thing.
