Off-Topic Where do you get your news?

[colperm]

I've been gradually dipping my toe into the OT threads and it's pretty clear that there are a multitude of viewpoint represented, which is a great thing. As most are aware, we live in a time where the quality of information is under attack and I'm interested in learning where folks get their news and which voices they are drawn to. I'll start:

Bottom b*tches:
Breaking Points
The Hill

Side chicks:
Timcast IRL
Rubin Report

Favorite voices/channels:
Joe Rogan
Jordan Peterson Youtube channel
Coleman Hughes
Triggernometry
Sam Harris
Douglas Murray

In posts, I've mentioned that I generally classify myself as a disaffected liberal and, for right or wrong, tend to gravitate towards voices who've had similar journeys.

CanesInsight off topic board. Can't be any less trustworthy than most outlets.

I surf many different sites to get a flavor of whats out there, but as far as what I take the most seriously, its the WSJ and Reuters.

 

[JD08]

I rely on the BBC mostly.

I start and end my day with my two spiritual advisors.

Don Lemmon and Jim Acosta.

When necessary, I reach out to Michael Moore for a sanity check.

They always get me right when I'm wrong.

I debated adding him because I do watch his clips on Youtube pretty often. As far as comedians who offer political commentary goes... I'm a fan of Maher and Burr mostly

LOL you must be devastated about CNN+

hard to read much since my time is so stretched but I try to gather as much as I can from various Reddit subs (just an easy way to have one place with a cross section of news). Other than that, I enjoy listening to bbc radio on occasion. I’ll also listen to some podcasts that are on the short side (npr ones).

That’s pretty much it.

Bereft of purpose. Rudderless. When I heard the news, I punted my favorite chihauhua-great dane mix, Fifi, in a fit of despondent rage.

Go to CNN's homepage and read about Biden preparing for Roe to be overturned, new coronavirus subvariants, and what to expect from the Jan 6 hearings.

Meanwhile, 1000 people died in an earthquake in Afghanistan.
