The book explores how the Internet has transformed public discourse in Malaysia and Singapore, acting as a tool for democratization in a political landscape that straddles liberal democracy and authoritarianism. It highlights the rise of alternative websites that adopt a confrontational approach to journalism, effectively challenging the prevailing narratives of mainstream media and fostering a more contentious political dialogue.
