Opposing Views

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Opposing Views is an American website where experts debate topics ranging from autism and child care to abortion and capital punishment.[1] It was founded by Internet entrepeneur Russell Fine.[2]

Among its strongest proponents has been tech guru Andrew Keen, who described the site as "convincing proof that Web 2.0's cult of amateur content is rapidly going out of fashion" and that "the internet's new 'new thing' is expertise."[3]

"Expert" contributors of original content to the site include Zeyno Baran, Joshua Marquis, Wesley J. Smith, Elliot Dorff, Jacob M. Appel, Shazzie, Tibor Machan and Diana Furchtgott-Roth.
