Twin peaks makes me nostalgic for a life i never had
Probably more reliable that most content on my news feed … do your dreams have an RSS feed?
Ooh, now that’s an interesting engineering problem.
I could design the myoelectric sensor interface, but they’d have to learn to lucid dream to use it. From there pushing it to RSS is easy.
Associated Press, Reuters, sometimes BBC and CBC. Most other news sources are just repackaged AP newswires with some commentary added.
To add to this, if you just want the news wires before the commentary and have an rss reader
RSS how to In browser

Some other feeds: note I do not promote or endorse these organizations

There is a site with all the RSS feeds from major news outlets. If you download the app Feeder you can add them and have an overall view. Problem is, there are more newspapers that don’t support RSS anymore and it’s a shame.
Thanks for these btw.
Mostly the same here with NPR and the Economist thrown in.
I listen to old ladies at the supermarket from across the aisle
Reuters, AP, NYT, WP, and to a small extent, Ground News. I filter for high factuality. My viewing is rated as slightly skewing left, but this is caused by so many Right sources are not credible sources. Known lies are not worth my time. My biggest gripe about Ground news is that to be balanced, I must waste time on sources that are not credible. Sadly, I can listen to RT or certain USA Right leaning politicians after a little time, and hear the same news.
I forgot FP Foreign Policy and the Economist.
For what it’s worth, I would say those sources mostly lean center right.
I’m a big fan of Ground News. Helps wading through the pool

The consensus I’ve learned is to read, read, read.
Try to be as careful as you can with sources and facts and reliable verified journalists.
Then read a whole bunch more.
Question your sources, question what you’re reading and question yourself.
Then draw your own conclusions from the information you’ve read. You may get it wrong but realize that no one ever fully gets it right.
The only restriction I place is that whatever it is one concludes is that it is kind, does not hate, does not endorse war, does not endorse killing. If something or someone is wanting you to feel hate, anger or fear, then you will know that you are moving away from facts.
As long as you work your hardest to stay informed, you will be more informed than most people.
As long as you’re trying, you’re doing better than the average person.
Here lol
RSS feeds of multiple news sources I gathered over time.
Previously, NYT, Washington Post, NPR. Now, I avoid it. I’m happier.
I usually find it one way or another because I can count on people I know to talk about it, though I never seek it out.
I have also stopped seeking news, knowing that I’ll likely hear all I need to know on the grapevine, and that I can look an article up if I need more context.
I recently found out about Axios which does short bullet point coverage of just the interesting/most important parts of stories. It seems to be a bit biased liberal overall, but being able to get the highlights without wasting time reading all the fluff is pretty convenient.
Aren’t thous bullet points useless if you know that the writer have biased opinions and can just misinterpret the source because of their views? Even if unintentionally
Less biased than some other media sources I’ve seen and makes it more likely that I’ll read it. Since the opinions are clearly marked it’s possible to skip them as well and just read the facts as presented. I just keep it in mind as I read and it works for me.
Democracy Now
It’s great but hard on the old heartstrings.
BBC and then here for the more obscure stuff.
Tangential: I bought a paper newspaper recently. It cost $2 for a weekday paper. I remember when that was $0.25 and the Sunday paper was $2.
a dime, and 50c on sundays when i was a kid; and sunday papers had stacks of coupons and fliers from stores with actual sales in them. mom sometimes sent me to get extra sunday papers when the coupons were especially good.
