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.

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?

I stopped using Google News because all it did was depress me. Lemmy and podcasts now.

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.

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

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.

Gosh, do they still do RSS feeds? I so miss that era of the internet.

Believe it or not, I think the Christian Science Monitor puts out good articles. I'm not religious. I'm also not in the current US conservative camp. It's too bad it's paywalled. But the few articles I've read actually seemed nicely nuanced, pretty balanced, and interesting.
