OK, partly off topic: I'm new here and in the fediverse in general.
Trying to find out what is what and where I want to be part of.
So I figure I go to Ask Lemmy, where I see your question and found it interesting.
To my surprise, since I was under the impression lemmy.ml was a real leftist place I see mostly horrible MSM sources.
Was I wrong?lemmy.ml federates with almost all instances most of which aren't leftist, the admins are leftist as is a lot of the local userbase, but the moderation varies between communities and this one tends one of the more permissive one. If you want one that's more exclusively leftist you're probably looking for Hexbear or Lemmygrad.

My feed reader; there's a couple bloggers and a singular journalist that I follow. I have a digital subscription to a national newspaper as well.

I usually read from every source, but i have my favorites like UOL notícias, G1, Carta Capital and Metropóles (brazillian here). But to deal with international content I started to use a tool that changed my life some years ago... it´s called newsblur . I can have everything i want from that since it works on web3 sites and RSS. And when I mean everything im not only talking about news. I can catch up with my my wiki project contributions and changes, the updates from my linux distro and even news from every website in 3 different languages. Just make an account and paste link, classify as you wish, mute what you don't want to be bothered with and never get yourself chasing what to read in news matter.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events is the most neutral source of news I know. I read it every day.

For any German, correctiv should be a must go to...although it's not necessarily daily news but rather weekly and investigative journalism. Politico.eu for europeans, deutschlandfunk, Tagesschau, lemmy, reddit
But as some people have hinted as well... Visiting news sites nowadays can only make you depressed really...

I mostly don't follow the news; I value my mental health too much for that these days...

About ten separate sources. A little bit of right, a little bit of left, some national, some international. I find this really exposes the bias some sources put on stories, and after a while you can tell which source it is just by words used in the headline.

News in my mother tongue, not beneficial to English speaker people
Do you ever compare it to news outside of your region?

democracy now! is legit a core news reporting source for many unreported and underreported stories. thumbs up for DN!
This sounded good and it says it reports global news, but every story on the front page is US centric?

A centrist mainstream national newspaper to be aware of what the political mainstream is concerned about.
Al Jazeera for international news.
Articles sent to me by friends and comrades for news on more specific matters that may not make more mainstream news.
And groupchats and internal publications of organisations I'm in for both more politically-relevant news (eg news of local strikes that often aren't otherwise reported on) and commentary.

It's definitely intended for US audiences. They do long-running features on topics like the war in Gaza, and they touch on important global events like contested elections, but its perspective is rooted in progressive US politics.
