in and out of fediverse.
Personally I love PBS/NPR (both National and my local station; support your local station!), The Verge, TWiT/This Week in Tech, Daily Tech News Show, Democracy Now!, C4 News, and Web3 is Going Great.
I do my local national public radio every day. Great local coverage and balanced fact driven national coverage. I have donated to them for a decade now. No regrets
Democracy now is doing excellent coverage of palestine. Also the majority report.
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
I’'m a big fan of Some More News on YouTube.
@fuzzy_feeling too many of them tbh. I also gotta do some cleanup at some point:
postimg.cc/7GXfY6SnThere’s plenty more in my Feedly account, some duplicates, cannot catch them all. At this point, I returned to getting what’s currently in the spotlight.
I don’t follow news. If it’s big enough, it will reach me some or the other way.
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.
@bigboismith You’re probably referring to some sort of public broadcaster, right? That’s actually quite a good source if the management is not politically controlled/infiltrated in any way by any political party
Associated Press is great for world news. They’re a bit slow but you get less mistakes.
For important news like Linux news, destination Linux, brodie Robinson and the Linux experiment are my goto.
less mistakes
oh the dross other outlets push aren’t mistakes …
What does dross mean?
waste, garbage, trash, The scum that forms on the surface of molten metal as a result of oxidation, worthless
You get fewer mistakes
I’m sorry, the irony was too much to ignore
I haven’t noticed the AP being that slow in comparison to other outlets IMHO
I have 306 RSS sources soooo you’re gonna have to be more specific :)
Curious what they are and how you manage the incoming?
I have been trying to curate my list and they’re all very chatty. I end up struggling to stay on top of it even just dismissing articles I won’t read, let alone reading a significant percentage.
I organize them into lists and start with the most relevant ones. Use filters to remove spam as best I can. Then skim the titles. Not every publication is pushing 30 articles/day. I won’t claim to read all of them.
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
Lemmy and the google news feed. Sometimes my family members.
the comment section
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.
The BBC, AP, and Reuters are a good place to start.
I like Erin in the Morning, Propublica, and Bellingcat as well, but they require additional work to parse sometimes.
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/
