  • What is Alternative Media?
  • It is generally considered to be any type of media, that is not controlled by a business operation or syndicate, or a government agency. Alternative media can include traditional outlets such as newspaper, magazines, radio, TV and films; as well as new media outlets such as web sites, e-books and e-magazines, streamed audio and video, or other online media outlets.

Alternative media exists to present a different perspective than that promulgated by the mainstream media, by offering opportunities for dissenting points of view and ideas seldom presented by the established media outlets.
