Do you Google search and click on whatever news sources come up or do you look into the news sources leanings, news reporting quality, and credibility? Maybe just if you can vibe with it or not in general?
Simplified
Do you save a list of specific news sites? Or do you just click on anything just to read that specific story on a search engine?
Me personally: I have a set list of sites I check. I know that they are credible and trust worthy to the public, being non profits and them having high standards to news reporting. (some of them include Npr, and Ap news) Most of their news stories are intended to benefit the public. Of course they aren’t always perfect, but a solid choice, especially if you’re starting out on picking a specific news source.
How about you all?
AP is basically where the news gets its news, so I go there if I’m not looking for commentary or discussion.
Some comedy news programs have developed a level of journalistic integrity that frequently surpasses actual news outlets. John Oliver, the Daily Show, and Jon Stewart’s The Weekly Show podcast are really solid, not to mention much less hostile to sanity.
NPR has historically been king for getting me to feel like I actually understand an issue. I’ve been wary of them ever since whatever record-scratching both-sidesing it was they pulled during the 2016-2020 Trump American Soulrape Era that made me think nazi cock might have npr spit on it. I might look back into them again. They were good for a long time before that, it’s been awhile, and I haven’t heard about it continuing.
