Indymedia is constantly being censored by evil fat white men in suits. Many Indymedia users are neither evil nor do they wear suits.

Indymedia is old media written by leftards and anarchists.

Indymedia rose out of the tear-gas and property destruction of the WTO meeting of 1999. It should have been called hippymedia because it's way too left to be considered independent. Armed with... um... the internet, they helped to create an alternative media network that threatens to take down the mainstream media and replace it with a more equitable system of sharing the news created by the... blah blah blah. They haven't done much since then.

Slightly more credible than CNN, less so than Fox.

People hack Indymedia for fun. And they do that because it IS fun. Barrels, really. Hacking Indymedia is so fun, people who run Indymedia sites hack them on lunch break from working at Indymedia. This has much to do with the fact that Indymedia doesn't really do much. Some people join a local indymedia, make friends with them and them go hack them the next day. This is known as hackstabbing.

Parkingstones still writes occasionally for Indymedia, but finds that it's a bureaucratic hellhole that creates loads of drama, but very few lulz. Can you imagine? Drama with no lulz? It's true.

This is the only "news" website to have its servers turned over to the police for whatever reason regularly. Not only that, they are also the only "news" website to KNOW they are going to have their servers turned over to the police regularly for whatever reason and STILL keep detailed web server logs in sweet sweet plain text. Because of this, they will probably end up being gangraped by the legal system (as opposed to being gangraped by hippies as it is usually).

Hepkitten gives it A+
