Anyone know any good news sources?

[goldpower123]

Does anyone know any good places to access news sources, forums, high quality information etc. that isn't mainstream, Google recommended, mainstream media or science etc. Like subreddits, websites, onion links, people etc. Just wondering if you guys know of anything yourself. Cheers

If you think reddit means quality of information then there's a problem right there!

 

The freddom to access multiple sources is the only real exit we have, pay special attention to all sorts of oppositions as it often comes from them 1st, before mass-media picks up.

@goldpower123 National Public Radio, (NPR).

High quality, complex news analysis. Relatively non partisan. Not run for profit, so it avoids corporate conflicts of interest.

Breitbart but I don't know if it's biased

Heads up, Breitbart is a highly biased Alt-Right news source. 

[Preety_India]

@Rilles I had a slight hunch about that.  But I guess back in the day, it was neutral, not sure right now. Their old videos were good.

The first step to starting to believe in conspiracy theories and shit is to reject everything mainstream and only consume information from alternative sources.

Once you fall into that hole.. I don't know if you can get out. So watch out.

reuters is alright

These are some Youtube channels I follow. They basically talk about how the US economy is going to shit and how we're headed towards a depression. Kitco News mainly talks about news related to crypto and precious metals.

Ground News has news stories from sources across the spectrum, so you can read about it from different points of view.

Gives unbiased (as possible) new coverage.  It has left - middle - and right media outlets posted as such so you can see what each side is saying.

As much as I don't trust what this world offers, I agree it's good to be careful

@goldpower123 yea....none of them

 

Every cable news channel out there has some agenda, whether it be pushing propaganda or increasing their ratings. Have you noticed, especially with local news, that they over exaggerate each and every story? I just stopped watching the news all together. If you want to know what's going on in the world, I would suggest subscribing to BBC, Reuters, or Wall Street Journal (though they do have their own biases, they are no where near as bad as CNN, Fox, MSNBC, to name a few).

@Preety_India Breitbart is more right wing than fox news haha. The man who created it, Steve Bannon, is an actual figure in the alt right and white nationalist circles.

[Preety_India]

@kray it wasn't created by Steve Bannon though. 

[kray]

@Preety_India yea you actually are right on that front. He was the former executive chairmen though.

[Peter-Andre]

The Associated Press and Reuters are good if you just want unfiltered, unbiased news.

@Matt23 That doesn't really make it fair and unbiased. It presents the left, the center and the right as though they are equally valid on every issue. The truth is that right wing media outlets tend to be the least reliable and most biased. Although I have to admit that the website did give me a good laugh when I read the three news headlines on this story and saw the right wing headline. It kind of proves my point.

Edit: Also, the website is listing news outlets like CNN and The Independent as left wing sources, which I think is kind of ridiculous.
