WSJ because the rest are a joke. But the reporting can be garbage at times. Tom Wolfe's roastie daughter writes for them, actually.

>>9335298
AP & Reuters sometimes, but mostly I just try and glean what's happening in the world from conversations with people. But I never ask about any details because I want to seem like I know whats happening.
>>
>>9335298
BBC, NPR, NYT, Washington Post, Atlantic, sometimes RT or Al Jazeera if I want more views of a topic.

this is just for national/international news stuff. I read the Kansas City Star and listen to KCUR for local stuff.

Better to first watch someone who is open about their biases and learn to catch people in lies before graduating to people who try be unbiased and catching them in those lies.

All news outlets just give you the narrative, it's up to you to do the groundwork to find out what's identifiably true and what's not, and make useful judgments on the rest.

I'll say it again: news outlets aren't authorities, they're platforms. Even if you find one that has never lied to your knowledge and gives you timely and incredibly useful information, don't shut off your brain and don't elevate it/them into something infallible.

This need for vigilance, incisive intellect, and an autistic focus on things actually being true before taking them as true is why most people can and always will be easily led three ways from Sunday by various arms of the media. People are lazy, integrity is hard.

A big surge of horseshit. I asked because I don't have the time to read 27 newspapers from different countries only to understand what is the most impartial and objective. I asked because I trust the opinion of most people on here.

I didn't ask you to read 27 newspapers. I'm telling you that learning to swim is better then memorizing a currently dry path in a crisscrossing web of ocean sandbars in a landscape that is forever changing.

Fuck off. The whole point of asking for good quality news sources is that it then doesn't matter if I have good judgement or verification of what ever. I just stick to quality sources and I'll have the truth.

I came here to see what news sources people have posted. Why can't I tell someone to fuck off and explain why I disagree? Just because you talked to them before I did?

So, to be clear to >>9335887, I am not >>9335746. I just disagree with what you said and explained my position. Hope that clears up any hurt feelings or identity discomfort.

These other guys are giving you a hard time, but I'm legitimately curious. With the additional perspective of time, do you think that >>9336015 was a bit of an overreaction, and that calling someone childish on that basis was unnecessary? If not, how is it justified?

this, and there's no reason to other than to be able to socialize about shit with other people who waste their time watching the news, your life is not ever going to change by knowing one more awful after thing another that's happening, I'm already well aware of our condition and have zero need to be constantly reminded.

I've tried to set up RSS readers/news aggregators many times, and I've always regretted it. There's just too much fucking shit that clogs up the feed - headlines that deliberately try to generate a reaction and get you to click. Even limiting the sources to a select few doesn't help, because even the most esteemed sources will have a good fraction of clickbait-y articles.

Take pic related as an example. "Why girl, 2, had to defend her choice of doll." This is an example of complete trash that I don't want in my feed. Why in the fuck would I ever give a shit about this random child and her fucking doll? "This vault seeks to protect world's most precious data." Fuck off. Which vault? I'm not going to click you shitty story to find out. If this vault were so substantial and important, they wouldn't so vague about it in the headline. Why would I waste my life away reading about random shit that won't have a substantial impact on the world?

Now I'm not sure why I care so much. I don't understand how anybody can spend so much time reading the news. Most of it is mediocre writing and wishy-washy analyses. All the time taken to read articles, compare sources, and come up with my own conclusions I'd rather spend on reading more substantial books and learning deeper truths about the world.

Any huezilians in here? Can you tell me if ig.com has some serious dirt behind it? It's what I read to get the news of the day, it just seems to have a slight neoliberal bias.
>>
>>9337525
Like every other big media outlet over here, the neoliberal bias is the norm, see VEJA, O Estado de São Paulo, ISTOÉ, G1 or even Carta Capital and any other newspaper/news network. I, being from SC, get my local news from the ClickRBS/A Notícia combo and my international news from Le Monde, Der Spiegel, The Economist and Reuters, the NYT once in a while.

You just have to waddle trough the shitty "let's suck America's cock and open our asses to globalization and idolize the """free markets""" worldwide" narrative BR media pushes and you're set.

Also avoid Jornal Nacional and GloboNews like the plague.
