translate English to French: The mission statement of the first IMC, which has been partially adopted by many others, confirms this rather traditional counterinformation-based approach: "Indymedia is a collective of independent media organizations and hundreds of journalists offering grassroots, non-corporate coverage. Indymedia is a democratic media outlet for the creation of radical, accurate, and passionate tellings of truth" [6] .
De par son avant-plan, tout Centre de média indépendant ou "Indymedia" apparaît simplement comme un site internet de contre-public alternatif: reportages sur des protestations au niveau local et mondial, appels à des rencontres et des activités ainsi que reportages sur ceux-ci, des sujets tels que l'anti-racisme, le genre, le militarisme, les luttes sociales, la biotechnique.
