I think like anything one has to take information from a variety of sources. No one is unbiased. Just ask me! HA HA HA

I know a lot of Americans have a very dim view of Al Jazeera - but they actually report news not infotaint/infopinion nonsense like CNN/MSNBC/Fox.

BBC and AP are my go-tos

Capitulation even in the slightest toward Trump simply because he won illustrates to me the “mission” of these news organizations is not truth and accountability but ratings and profits

I haven’t turned on MSNBC since the Nov 5th lol

That's why I love me my nonprofit, listener funded new sources 💕

Even the alleged "mainstream" news outlets are doing all the bullshit clickbait headlines and content just to farm outrage and discontent in the comments, for fucking clicks and engagement. Journalism left their offices a long time ago

I hold a special anger and frustration for those who abandon their role as checks and also abandon any type of moral ethic to the institution of journalism because they are in self preservation mode which none of them would be if they embraced their role properly during the election but didn’t

Let me add al Jazeera. Some of the best journalism in the world.

MS...who?

mdainbtown.bsky.social•69 days ago

and I'd whittle that down a little further to:
Reuters
AP
BBC

I stopped watching Morning Joe when they went to visit Donald Trump.

Their performance was disgraceful

Amen 🙏🏻

Other alternative media sources

Meidastouch Network - online ( Spotify, YouTube ). Independent, Indepth political coverage.

CBC - 🇨🇦 government funded and good source for less biased 🇺🇸 news

@aljazeeraenglish.bsky.social - looks like BBC World with better funding. Excellent global coverage.

I'm tired of watching political equivalent of psychics, failures, and liars. Good riddance MSNBC and CNN. The GOP can choke on Fox bullshit.

We need to also put more focus on actual journalists with ethical standards and accountability. Propping up who they work for an as institution is a recipe for the wealthy interests to co-op trust they don’t deserve.

Follow journalists, not the for-profit, demand driven businesses that employ them.

Most have substacks for the stuff they can't/won't sell to publications.
