An excellent source that I’m ashamed I only discovered recently. Consistently first-rate independent journalism on literally the most important subjects there are. Should be better known. Read. Donate.
Great other choices too.
You’re single-handedly saving this entire thread. I was about to delete it for being off topic.
Lmao
Happy to help
Rss is the way
Just the memes, and then I hear someone mention some atrocity and I understand the half of them :p
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?
Reuters usually has half decent articles, but they’re owned by billionaires out of Canada. This look into them was done late last year: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174374
AP has some sketch board members as shown here: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174861
While Reuters is obviously written from a neoliberal perspective, I think as long as you are aware of that, their coverage is fine. It’s very fact based. It’s designed to provide information for investors who are trying to make money from current events, so they have an incentive to do accurate coverage, but of course they will mainly cover things that are relevant to the finance world.
I like AP News a lil better than Reuters. Axios and NBC News ain’t bad either if you’re okay with using sites that skew a lil farther to the left.
Yeah, corporate media is definitely “the left.” 🙄

If only your mother would have loved you then you wouldn’t be craving my attention so badly.
Let me be perfectly clear: I don’t give a fuck what a fascist troll parrots from the brainwormed “thought” leaders that know he’ll gleefully guzzle gallons of garbage for the mere hope of tasting of Elon Musk’s grundle.
Now piss off.
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 GermanyAlthough there are criticisms for each, at the very least, they give a good guidance to relevant straight forward news without too much spin.
What about NPR in the US as well
I’ve got a MASSIVE fricking OPML file I grab my news from and punch into various apps and sites like Feedly. I grab basically as many feeds as I can, except those that typically paywall their sites (like WaPo, NYT and WSJ)
