With issues like stem cell research, the Iraqi War, and conflict with Iran and North Korea looming, even the most savvy of media consumers may have a tough time finding reliable sources for opinion and information. The rise in vitriolic language from Democrats and Republicans has seeped into the mainstream media, forcing the public onto the internet “blogosphere.” Blogs allow reporters, experts, and the average person to communicate with each other on the issues of the day. While there are plenty of liberal and conservative blogs to be found, my hope is that this article will help anyone interested in learning about the world of politics find relatively unbiased sources of information.

A good blogging source for those interested in international affairs is Internationalist Magazine’s website. On the front page of the Internationalist is a list of regular blogs by contributing writers and academics on issues like media bias, foreign policy, and humanitarian issues. While the name may indicate a more liberal bias, there have been blog entries on the United Nation’s failures (a creation of liberal politicians) and the failure of Democrats to sufficiently fight President Bush’s foreign policy whims.

MichelleMalkin.com is still one of the top political blogs out there.

Good piece. And I agree with you on the Internationalist. When it comes to blog/ columnist sites, this one is excellent
