I’m usually trusting Reuters or AP news

Though I’ve heard of ground.news and have been thinking about subscribing, DAE have experience with them? Are they as unbiased as they claim?

Publically owned or controlled (or at least majority owned and controlled) news services in major countries

CBC - in Canada (where I’m from)
PBS - in the US
NPR - in the US
ABC - Australia
BBC - in the UK
France 24 - in France
NHK - in Japan
DW - in Germany

Although there are criticisms for each, at the very least, they give a good guidance to relevant straight forward news without too much spin.

Not a news source, but commentary. I watch/listen to breaking points https://www.youtube.com/@breakingpoints

they cite drop site news frequently https://www.dropsitenews.com/

and I read Ken Klippenstein https://www.kenklippenstein.com/

I got a local loud mouth who listens to Infowars

I just assume the opposite of what he says is true. So far it’s working

My local government news. Call me a sheep but since they don’t farm clicks they seem to have the most nuanced and engaging stories. For-profit news these days are just doom-posting and rage bait.

I don’t follow news. If it’s big enough, it will reach me some or the other way.

I try to stick to AP/Reuters. They tend to be more direct and less wordy. BBC, NPR, sometimes Guardian, NYT, and other news sources follow in approximately that order.

Democracy now is doing excellent coverage of palestine. Also the majority report.

I’'m a big fan of Some More News on YouTube.

Judd Legum, actual journalist who does the legwork.

I used to be a Google News junkie, but I stopped using their products. Now, I have a more streamlined view via these two: https://www.newsminimalist.com/ https://www.boringreport.org/app

These days I try to avoid the news.

Roca News @ridethenews is my go to but I’ve tuned most things out at this point to try and stay sane.
