Monsters and Critics is a news and review website.
The website has topics like movie reviews and politics. It allows visitors to comment on news related topics.
It was founded in 2003 by the site editor James Wray and the lead programmer Ulf Stabe, based in Glasgow, UK and Hamburg, Germany respectively.
The comments are not moderated at the point of publishing, but rather moderation is done after they are posted live on the site, on a rolling basis. This allows for a flow of conversation between users.
[edit] News stories
Monsters and Critics, unlike the typical blog, has news stories that are not biased towards one person's point of view. Sometimes, the website has stories from various news sources like Deutsche Presse-Agentur and United Press International (UPI).
