Npoess Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Quick question: What do you find best and useful news source? (nationality doesn't matter, as long as it is English speaking of course)Looking for some sites to follow, as I want to be oriented on international news. But the only site I've ever found appealing is The Guardian. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadameChaos Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 The Independent and Al Jazeera mainly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest potabo Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Reading this article from Infowars and saw this: "Socialists, be they “red” or “nationalist,” invariably purge and murder all opposition in order to gain, consolidate and hold power." No, dictators purge and murder the opposition in order to gain power, it's not an inherent part of socialism. What an mind-bogglingly stupid sentence. Socialism/Communism/Marxism =/= Dictatorship (sorry i turned this into some sort of political thing but it infuriates me when people think/say stuff like this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

granty Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 It's The Guardian for me too - BBC are utterly biased. I think RT, Huffington and those MadameChaos mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadameChaos Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I mainly read the guardian at work tbh. For some reason they've blocked the independent website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bechuga Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Rubin Farr edit: also BBC and other news sites to find the facts out in amongst the bias/fiction. Not that it's impossible for all news sites on the internet to carry incorrect/false information simultaneously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublename Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I liked The Guardian until they launched the awful US site. It can be a bit tabloid-y. Propublica, Al-Jazeera, NYTimes and PBS are the sources I normally use now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usagi Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I liked The Guardian until they launched the awful US site. It can be a bit tabloid-y. right? I was wondering wtf was up with that, you don't normally see 'articles' about Kimmy's latest pubic wax mishap or whatever on the old Guard.

may be rude Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 slashdot is great, though it focuses on nerd subjects the best news source is not one news source. use several. i finally got around to making some rss pages on yahoo, so i can see 10 headlines each from a bunch of sources on one page. cant believe i didnt realize i could do that, i'd had an rss ticker that i never paid attention to and was hitting up a set of sites in a much more time consuming way. nytimes has an ap wire feed page where they put up (all?) ap stories as they come in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I like National Public Radio (NPR) http://npr.org- for me, the fact that it has human interest stories intermixed with world news and US news and not just sensationalist headlines makes for easier listening.
