AntiWar Agenda

Antiwar Agenda 

 If you take a look at the websites ANTIWAR.COM and The American Conservative, they have an antiwar agenda, but if you looked at the mainstream news then it would be quite the opposite. I've seen articles before about people being against a war, but nothing close to how these websites portrayed it. It makes you speculate a little about why we aren't seeing this in the mainstream news, rather than being almost hidden from the world. 

Some of the potential reasons as to why we have to seek out obscure websites to see these strong antiwar voices are because it doesn't fit the news that the media is trying to portray and it can be sheltered so people only see a certain side of things. Typically when you look at the internet nowadays there's numerous of websites that try to appeal to an audience and avoid speaking about certain things. 

The websites were more opinionated and more direct than the ones you would typically see in the mainstream news. I feel like that's one of the biggest reasons as to why it gets hidden from the mainstream news because it has their own opinions and they're not afraid to hide or filter it. The mainstream news, for the most part says things that is widely known across all medias. While, on the other hand there seems to be a distinct difference between the two. These antiwar websites say things that aren't well-known across all media platforms, which makes them different. The media sometimes doesn't like different, which negatively impacts this websites' views. I've never once heard of either of these two websites and it's because they've been sheltered from me and everyone else due to those reasons.
