The Guardian is a great newspaper. They are a liberal paper but are always truthful. Indeed, they have been one of the few trusted sources for hugely important leaks such as Edward Snowden’s leaks, and this new Flic book exposing the Paris Police.
The BBC is also a good source of straightforward facts and analysis.
I disagree. The incident in question was the subject of many articles over the course of several months. They had many opportunities to correct their errors. The newspaper editors were only interested in sensational accounts that, presumably, drove clicks, ratings and advertising revenue. Their track record is manifestly suspect.

NPR is pretty trustworthy for its balanced and objective news reporting.
Associated press
BBC. At least it’s not controlled by American interests, that instantly elevates it to me

+1 for DW. Smaller news outlet but fairly objective.

In that case...
Economist
I don’t disagree, but I think that’s the inevitable result of removing qualitative color from journalism. Can compensate by sampling from left/right sources, but I prefer starting with a data driven baseline.

Reuter’s
WSJ as main source. When something gets fishy, or I need to grab specific context, I try to cross reference analysis between Reason, the Economist, Democracy Now, the Atlantic, the American Conservative and New Yorker. Anything that mentions China has to be cross referenced through Epoch Times.
The hill is a really good source, they have a morning show called rising which is very good.(two very intelligent hosts with opposing ideological views)
Financial Times, BBC, Reuters, AP.

Day time Fox News is actually pretty objective. The morning shows and night shows are obviously much more subjective to appeal to their conservative fan base.

BBC & ABC. I watched Fox News for some entertainment after work.
Local stations in general do ok, because their target market is the region. It's the national stuff that's the worst. Although I don't trust any of them completely because emotion and sensationalism sells. Example Texas is going through a huge decline in covid cases and hasn't had any covid deaths this week. That's not reported because it doesn't sell as well as "covid is going to kill everyone".
Thanks C1, that is exactly my point
Reuters, and usually Associated Press. That's it.
