@divegeester

i found a source of news https://www.semafor.com/
my discovery is ten imperial minutes olde
the discovery came thru a story accessed on the https://www.drudgereport.com/

my instinct is to find out what a website is "about", then read the reports offered and make a judgment call as to reliability



i am curious as to yer thoughts

When I’m tired of the killings, bombings and political “junk” that seems to take centre stage in the news, I go to my collection of 45s (records, not guns) and put the Hedgehogs Anonymous best known one on my Hi-Fi and sit back and enjoy the week’s good news.πŸ€”πŸ˜‰πŸ‘

The Economist in print.

NZZ online.

PBS online.

Sometimes CNN, Reuters, APnews online.

Never anything MetalBrain links to.

autozone - fox "news"
waiting room at the department of motor vehicles - fox "news"
my father's living room tv - fox "news" (24/7 unless reruns of the big bang theory are playing)

WOW!! 😲 Fox News sure sounds like a lot of folks use it. I guess I better head on over as it seems to be the best source of, “real, not fake” news.πŸ‘

Realclearpolitics (and its many daughter sites) are very careful to present articles from both sides of every major story and is, by far, the best aggregator that I know if.
