In its own words:
"A collaborative, specialized encyclopedia of the people, organizations, and issues shaping the public agenda. SourceWatch profiles the activities of front groups, PR spinners, industry-friendly experts, industry-funded organizations, and think tanks trying to manipulate public opinion on behalf of corporations or government. We also highlight key public policies they are trying to affect and provide ways to get involved."

Main focus: Fracking, ALEC, Koch Brothers, State Policy Network, US/National Debt

SourceWatch is very useful as a reference, though does have its blindspots, such as in 9/11 and other false flags where it uncritically repeats the official narrative. It is under the umbrella of the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) which is a nonprofit watchdog and advocacy organization based in Madison, Wisconsin. CMD publishes PR Watch, SourceWatch, and ALECexposed.org.

Event	Description
Open Society Foundations	A NGO operating in more countries than McDonald's. It has the tendency to support politicians (at times through astroturfing) and activists that get branded as "extreme left" as its founder is billionaire and bane of the pound George Soros. This polarizing perspective causes the abnormal influence of the OSF to go somewhat unanswered.
