    I try to stick to AP/Reuters. They tend to be more direct and less wordy. BBC, sometimes Guardian, NYT, and other news sources follow.

      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.

        Democracy now is doing excellent coverage of palestine.
        Also the majority report.

            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.

              I don't follow news. If it's big enough, it will reach me some or the other way.

                  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.

                      @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

                        @fuzzy_feeling too many of them tbh. I also gotta do some cleanup at some point:
                        postimg.cc/7GXfY6Sn

                        There'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.

                          Reuters usually has half decent articles, but they're owned by billionaires out of Canada. This look into them was done late last year: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174374

                          AP has some sketch board members as shown here: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174861

                          It helps that their business model doesn't rely on ads or user tracking, and instead relies on subscriptions from other news businesses. This obviously isn't perfect as it requires those other businesses to exist and be profitable, but it's a helpful layer of insulation.

                            Lemmy and Imgur. Before that it was reddit. And before that, digg.

                                  The Guardian is not owned by a billionaire, but by a trust that was made to preserve it's integrity. So them.

                                    Exclusively independent media (404 and newly the taz in germany). Besides that bush drums of the fedi (mastodon and lemmy, memes).
