Where do you all get your news from? I’m trying to avoid a news bubble so I created a Feedly account and follow CNN, MSNBC, RT, Fox News, Epoch Times, BBC, Al Jazeera, France24, Infowars, AP News.

Associated Press, Axios, Reuters, Bloomberg. I have disavowed all the mainstream tv networks and affiliated websites except ABC and CNBC. Also get WSJ, NYT, Politico Pro and WaPo access from work, but i use those less. The papers have a bit more of an editorial slant than you tend to see from the likes of Reuters. Politico just sends so many email alerts i drown in them, but they are super useful for keeping up with policy developments on niche topics.

For what it's worth, InfoWars is widely known to be unreliable and has had numerous stories fact-checked and debunked. Al Jazeera has a very pro-Qatari slant. RT is literally run by the Kremlin and has run clearly falsified content about other countries, particularly political figures the Russian govt. dislikes.

Awesome thanks

Nuts choices. The “news issue” is not just political bias, it is also scope of news, and quality of analysis, understanding and thinking. Elevate your choices, eg try the Times, the WSJ, the FT, the Economist, Foreign Affairs (for a handful).

A good refrence. IMO State sponsored sites like NPR, BBC, Al Jazeera, anything Russian or Chinese are suspect but you learn a lot from propaganda..

Out of curiosity, why InfoWars? That is not at all a credible news source...neither is RT. But if you’re going to do all of these, why not NPR?

Tyt, daily wire, politico, Tim pool (video/audio news critic), the hill, subverse news, China uncensored, America uncovered and south China morning post. I think this would give you a good mix of view points

Infowars is tabloid. RT is owned and dictated by Putin.

AP and Reuters are solid middle.

That's an insult to more upstanding tabloids like the Daily Mail 😂

So I recently started a position with Fox. When it was presented to me in interview, I was told I would be working aligned with Fox Sports & Entertainment, not so much News.
