To be considered independent they have to be the craziest voice in the crowd.
Its similar to the mentality of the music/art snob. They only enjoy the independent artists, all other music is whats wrong with the world, and then they hit the mainstream, and then they suck too.
Thats not to say that all points here must be discarded or discounted outright simply because of this. I'm simply implying that this is far from a credible source, but their points have merit, or at the very least may have merit. They must simply be taken with a grain of salt and interpreted accordingly. Dont swallow this pill without thinking.
Analyze and interpret.

I agree that one should be wary about trusting information from
any source, and absolutely that includes independent media. But when the topic at hand (ie. The Security and Prosperity Partnership, or the North American Union) has been hatched in secrecy, and then ignored by the mainstream media and government, who else is there to turn to to find out more information but the independent press?
There is plenty of information about the SPP on the internet, and 99% of it is from the independent media.
What is your opinion on the proposed merger between Canada, the US and Mexico?
