I always struggle with what sources I should be reading for news (particularly political news). I don’t want to read only sources that I agree with, but I also struggle finding news sources that aren’t sensationalist and put forward varied view points. Here are a few of the places I frequent (criticism of these sources or other recommendations are welcome.) I don’t think my political news sources are well varied so any recommendations there would be great as well.
- hackernews
- arstechnica
- the economist
- axios
- MIT News
- Wired
I primarily read New York Times and Wall Street Journal. Occasionally, I will read The Economist, but I see someone in this thread is heavily opposed to that. I try to expand my readings with other sources but I haven’t gotten hooked on any others yet.
I have a hard time believing I am being that misled by these sources as I don’t read any op-eds and seek more information from other sources for stories I read the most into.
