[NOTE: This page is dedicated to investigative journalist I.F. Stone who I once had the pleasure of meeting in his home and talking over a game of chess.]

See the below list of investigative journalists. If you do not have a Twitter account open one and click follow to the names of each of these investigative journalists -- you’ll never need a daily newspaper, a tv network again if you follow their Twitter comments and the comments of their colleagues!

Teach your children well -- do not rely on television news -- comprehensively search social media on the internet and find out why someone gets censored. This page is meant to widen the perspective of Americans who too often are linked to America-only media sources. Truth be known, five corporations control 90 percent of all media in America -- this, itself, is telling!

I’m sure there are some names I missed -- it’s hard to get everyone at once (I’ll add more later if need be). I hope you find this page valuable.

A very useful source for checking on accuracy of main-sourced or “fake” media -- also on what's been published and then deleted:

Investigative Journalists -- Best to follow on Twitter what they and their colleagues are discussing:

Serena Shim (RIP), Robert Parry (RIP), Julian Assange, John Pilger, Greg Palst, Abby Martin, Robert Fisk, Pepe Escobar, Richard Wolff, Amy Goodman, Chris Hedges, Seymour Hersh, Noam Chomskey, Aaron Maté, Glenn Greenwald, Oliver Stone, Lee Fang, Justin Raimondo, Nafeez Ahmed, Bill Moyers, Jamarl Lamont Thomas, Vanessa Beeley, Robert Sheer, Paul Pillar, William Blum, Jeremy Scahill, Rania Khalek, Juan Cole, Lee Camp, Sarah Stillman, Jesse Ventura, Mike Whitney, Benjamin Dixon, Patrick Cockburn, Gareth Porter, Jonathan Cook, Naomi Klein, Carl Bernstein, The Saker, Ralph Nader, Tim Black, Dilyana Gaytandzhieva, Ben Norton, Max Blumenthal, Elizabeth Lea Vos, Paul Jay, Michael Moore, Norman Soloman, Eva Bartlett, David Sirota, Jimmy Dore, Randy Credico, Nomi Prins, Eric Zuesse, Israel Shamir, Paul L.

Magnier, James Fallows and Caitlin Johnstone. One should also credit George Webb's relentless digging, also Defango who now and then kicks in a zinger. What I like about these journalists is they go for the scoop over the dollar! Also recommend a weekly viewing of Moon Over Alabama ("Where Barflies Get Together) which often ties it all together, getting in between and underneath with a top view of it all -- frankly, I do prefer the Guinness view of the world--lol!

[NOTE: This writing, originally a Facebook Note, had a list of about 25 international news journal sites. Facebook censored the post due to a name link to one of the media organizations. So I removed the list in a hope I'll get better mileage in the New World of Censorship.]
