Some may call the mainstream media liberal, but here are some true bastions of leftist ideals, and some of my favorite sources of online news:
1) Democracy Now! - take an hour and watch the whole show, or just choose the headlines that intrigue you. Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez take on the big issues in the "War and Peace Report". The musical interludes between stories are always a treat. On February 2nd they featured John Fahey Holding to the principle of being "independent media", they present voices from both sides of the political fence. One of the most fun recent features was their interview of Bolivian President Evo Morales.
2) Mother Jones - their tagline says it all: "Mother Jones online is your home for investigative news, politics, commentary, analysis and hellraising." I really like their timeline of the Iraq War: "Lie by Lie".
3) Slate - currently featuring a piece on gay sheep and one of the best Bible blogs ever.
4) FAIR - Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting.
