hypnosec writes "Anonymous knocked the doors of Indiegogo in a bid to raise some crowd-sourced dough to expand its news coverage by establishing a dedicated site instead of tweets and tumblr blog posts and managed to raise 27 time as much money as initially targeted. The initial target was to raise $2000 to fund the site development work as well as pay for initial hosting. Anonymous is planning to host news, reports and blogs from independent online reporters under its, already in use, Your Anon News brand."

Sadly, I expect them to get lumped in with the crackpots of the world, whether they're right or not. The corporate news outlets didn't get to be the only players in town by mistake, and they have a huge head-start on sculpting public opinion.
