Open Forum

As an open forum news blog, Counterview strives to reflect diverse perspectives—through news stories, articles, and blogs—for those who believe that official information is not necessarily synonymous with authenticity. We provide a platform for those who prefer not to rely solely on "mainstream" media, which often depends heavily on information from official sources. Our aim is not to dictate how readers should think, but to provide a space for reflection on different, and often opposing, news and views.
Why are we called "Counterview"? A closer look at the term reveals an interesting nuance: it does not merely mean "an opposite point of view," but also "a position in which two dissimilar things illustrate each other by opposition; contrast." In this sense, Counterview connotes the reflection of news and views from alternative, and even contrasting, quarters.
As a purely voluntary initiative, Counterview is not supported by any organization. We invite you to enrich this effort by contacting us.
