A site

Dear all:
Today I’d like to tell you about a place I enjoy visiting. There are a number of websites I like visiting, but today I’ll refer to a few. I started visiting “alternative “news sites a long time ago, when I realized what you could see through mass media was only part of the story, or a part to make us  believe what was more convenient for the authorities.  I was born in Temuco and, as a child; I used to visit Vilcun often because my family has some land there. Unfortunately, I got to know the way my family and other families got the land there. This somehow opened my eyes to alternative realities not known to most people.
I cannot talk about favorite websites but I can tell you what I visit most at the moment. There is a site called https://ciperchile.cl/ . This is a serious research center . I also visit a Russian website called https://www.rt.com/news/ what I like about these websites is the fact that they deal a lot with social issues that are either shown slightly or not shown at all on mass media.   I also like www.elmostrador.cl and sometimes look at www.elciudadano.cl . This last one I find a bit of a downer at times so I do not see it that often.  
There is a website I really like which deals with brain research in a simple and not so simple way is www.brainfacts.org 
On a lighter note, I really enjoy www.ted.com  I can see some amazing talks from designers, humanists, scientists or just people who, 95% of the time, have something really interesting to say. And why not mention it, I love www.youtube.com and  all the stuff you can learn about virtually anything on it. 
Talk about a website or a couple of websites you enjoy.
Say:
How you discovered it
Why you like it
How often you visit it
Include any extra information you find relevant.
Write 200 minimum. Make sure you write a comment to your teacher and 3 comments to your classmates.
