Independent Media is not only a growing phenomenon, but one of the greatest assets of a modern world:
"Information is power! If people do not have access to a free flow of
information and ideas, they cannot make informed decisions about issues
that directly effect the lives of themselves and others.
The media frequently ignores important issues and instead supplies the
public with sensationalism, trivia and celebrity bullshit. Harmless fun
perhaps, but surely the media's role should be to keep the public
informed, and not simply to increase it's market share or sell
advertising.
Could it be that the daily diet of trivia is provided to keep us passive
and stupid? Could it be that they don't really want us to know what is
going on in case we feel inspired to do something? Perhaps they would
rather leave us feeling disempowered?" - London Greenpeace
