Not from just one place . Friends, local street corner, alternate tv news stations. Any place but the bias CNN...

I subscribe to the Chicago Tribune and the Los Angeles Times, but Al Jazeera is my first choice.

Fox News


I thought FOX only carried fake news. Far too biased for my tastes. WSJ, WashPost, NY Times, Economist. MSNBC to balance out FOX.

This is actually pretty good.


A pretty significant conservative bias from my reading.

I listen to NPR, and watch PBS. I also get my news online from the news feeds of multiple sources.

FOX, CNBC, and my own independent thought once I have the "facts". While I favor FOX, I also value my independent thought based on my values and priorities. I have been known to be liberal on some issues and conservative on others and do not apologize for that.

Not much 'news' available any more. It is all now commentary as opposed to good journalism, particularly with Fox News (better known as Trump News).

I kinda like The Guardian. They at least they try to present a nonprejudiced analysis.

Well Dedo, as far as I can tell, most people don't read news periodicals. They depend on T-V programs and Talk Radio to tell them what to "Believe". Believing vs: Not Thinking has a stupefying effect on people.

People who get their news exclusively from T-V tend not to "Think"; rather they are prone to "Accept" and "Believe". And, by only "listening and watching" they reinforce their own beliefs and biases.

Worst of all, this type of person has also ceased to Question.

You have chosen a wide variety of news/information sources and I suspect you are very Broad and Open Minded in your views and opinions.

I get my news from Yahoo, my local TV News Stations, which gives me the News happening local. The one hour morning show, also gives you some glimpses of Nationwide News. I like the New York Times. I actually get to see for free, 10 articles per month, from their app. Still deciding on whether to subscribe? Its west coast competitor, the LA Times, is also an excellent News source.
