actually reading news

Reuters and Drudge

Using Google to find the primary source.

r/drama

Reuters is pretty good

Honestly, if you read a Reuters story and then skim articles covering the same story on HuffPost and Breitbart you'll have about as good an understanding both of the actual event and the assorted narratives as you're likely to get in the modern media environment.

/pol/ maymays

It unironically enrages me how many retards there are who actually get all of their news from from /pol/ and anime-twitter. We need a final solution to the /pol/ack problem.

Reuters is just the best

Reuters has a policy of taking a "value-neutral approach," which extends to not using the word "terrorist" in its stories, a practice which has attracted criticism following the September 11 attacks.[16]Reuters' editorial policy states: "We are committed to reporting the facts and in all situations avoid the use of emotive terms. The only exception is when we are quoting someone directly or in indirect speech."[17](The Associated Press, by contrast, does use the term "terrorist" in reference to non-governmental organizations who carry out attacks on civilian populations.[16]) Following the 11 September attacks, Reuters global head of news Stephen Jukes reiterated the policy in an internal memo and later explained to media columnist Howard Kurtz (who criticized the policy): "We all know that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, and that Reuters upholds the principle that we do not use the word terrorist...We're trying to treat everyone on a level playing field, however tragic it's been and however awful and cataclysmic for the American people and people around the world. We're there to tell the story. We're not there to evaluate the moral case."[16]

Not taking a side on 9/11? That's some pretty radical centrism.

Inshallah

Tim Pool's youtube channels. He is aggressively mild and reasonable.

There's an Associated Press feed app, I usually get my news there

tfw when you realize who holds the real power

Check out list

Hey idiot. First rule of The Place is don't talk about The Place. Let alone talking about in fucking r/drama.

In other words: Delete this nephew.

good idea

Too late retard it got caught by removeddit now your secret club is going to get cucked hard by radical centrists.

He really should have just messaged me if he was that worried

Seriously, know one would've been the wiser.

In addition to Reuters which has already been sufficiently jerked in this thread:

  • The Economist. Obviously they lean neolib as a whole (which is kind of centrist anyway) but they feature contributions from across the political spectrum occasionally, and their style guide is very clean and neutral.
  • Christian Science Monitor Some good medium and long form reporting
  • Roll Call Capitol politics centric organization with good sourcing to members of congress on both sides of the aisle.
  • Government Executive Under appreciated media arm targeted at the government employee demographic, which means they're often reporting on very under covered stories about things happening within federal agencies. Really good for regulatory news.
  • ProCon BOTH SIDES
  • FiveThirtyEight Fuck you, Nate Silver did literally nothing wrong.

FiveThirtyEight

Ever notice how Nate Silver’s constant “errors” always happen in only one direction?

Nah. Too right wing.

A CTH regular I see.

Tankies more like famines that your parents blamed on America for fear of getting disappeared

I read the NYT and WSJ and split the difference. Also the Economist.

My only news source is r/drama threads and cdace comments
