Democracy NOW - http://www.democracynow.org/
I wouldn't be surprised if they were getting their funding from Boeing and Microsoft but DemNow is a good place to learn a lot about the world.
They cover HOT news on a Daily basis via Video.

Mother Nature Network - http://www.mnn.com/
I know what you're thinking. This isn't alternative media. Just because it has a few corporate sponsors and is probably some subsidiary of a megacorp doesn't make it not alternative. mnn is truly an amazing source for information and you can find a lot of useful knowledge here that you just can't find on CNN, NYTimes, Fox, MSNBC, or any other major network. Check it out!

An excellent alternative news media organization dedicated to uncovering and producing true news and worldwide corruption.
This is one of my favorite alternative news websites.
