Unbiased news sources

•K• • Life is good 💜

I'm interested in knowing where you ladies and gents prefer to receive information on current events and political issues. Personally, I prefer to read the news as opposed to watching it on TV. I also try to read from several different sources in order see issues from different perspectives.

What is your go to source for unbiased news? Does such a thing even exist anymore?

It's always funny to me when people say things like, "I don't know why people have to bash fox news, the other networks are just as bad." The truth is, they all lie, but no one lies as much as Fox News.

The annenberg institute. They aren't polls, they analyzed speech from the news anchors and rated statements on the t/f continuum

I don't prefer TV news at all. It's too sensational. My preferred current events print news sources right now are BBC, The Economist, and NYT. For a good easy-to-read summary of academic research in all disciplines, I subscribe to Futurity by email -- try it out. Seriously, you won't regret it.   There's a media crisis in general, though, when all of the popular media networks are owned by only a few families/people.

MediaBlackOut is a good one. I highly recommend both checking out their website and following them on Instagram

NPR, New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and BBC are my favorites. I don't particularly like CNN or MSNBC, and Fox is literally the worst.

I love The Onion so much. So much dry satire, and it's delicious.

I don't think there is an unbiased news source! It is very amusing to read about the same story on CNN and Fox News. It's absolutely ridiculous how both stations are so biased in opposite directions.

NPR is my top pick, but I listen to it less since I don't really drive anymore. I usually try to catch the CBS evening local & national news on week nights. For reading I like the NYTimes. If I want in depth info on a particular topic, and I have the time to study it, I try to pull up journal from a database.
