Analysis / Bias
Countercurrents.org provides news and opinions from a progressive left perspective endorsing environmentalism, human rights, and support for Palestine in the struggle with Israel. Articles and headlines often contain loaded emotional wording such as this "Private hospitals fleecing the people by overcharging for vaccines". This story is properly sourced, as are others on the website.
Editorially,
Countercurrents.org aligns strongly with the progressive left. They also promote pro-science perspectives on Climate Change and Coronavirus. While they certainly align strongly with the more so-called radical left, they promote proper sourcing techniques and thus far are factual in reporting, though very one-sided.

Thank you all for your support to CC for making it what it is
