If you have time to read the output of just one serious site per day, then Global Research may be your best option. It does not specialize in breaking news but, give it a day or two, and it will post articles that provide insights into events which you will simply not get from any commercially-controlled media source.

Additional Information

In addition to the Global Research website, the Centre is involved in book publishing, support to humanitarian projects as well as educational outreach activities including the organization of public conferences and lectures. The Centre also acts as a think tank on crucial economic and geopolitical issues.

The Global Research website publishes news articles, commentary, background research and analysis on a broad range of issues, focusing on social, economic, strategic and environmental processes.

The Global Research website was established on the 9^th of September 2001, two days before the tragic events of September 11. Barely a few days later, Global Research had become a major news source on the New World Order and Washington's "war on terrorism". Since September 2001, we have established an extensive archive of news articles, in-depth reports and analysis on issues which are barely covered by the mainstream media.

In an era of media disinformation, our focus has essentially been to center on the "unspoken truth".

• During the invasion of Iraq (March-April 2003), Global Research published, on a daily basis, independent reports from the Middle East, which provided an alternative to the news emanating from the "embedded" journalists reporting from the war theater.
• In early 2006, Global Research established a separate French language website which reaches Francophone readers in Western Europe, North America, sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East.
• In 2007, we launched Spanish, Portuguese and German language pages, which contain translations of Global Research articles. Arabic, Italian and Serbian language pages were launched in 2008.
• In June 2010, they launched The Global Research TV (GRTV) website which features selected videos as well as commentary, analysis and news coverage

Reporting

Criticism

In 2014 Daniel Hopsicker charged Global Research with producing a "completely fictitious report" that claimed "Edward Snowden has released NSA Documents showing ISIS Leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was trained by Mossad, working with U.S. and British intelligence, to create the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS)".
