How about all of the above or most of the above?

I get my news from at least 10 sources per day including NY Times, WPost, CNN, ABC, Vice, BBC, Reuters, AP, NBC, Bloomberg, PBS, etc.

Breibart is junk and shouldn't even be on the list with real news.

Interesting table with trust #s from each news source and its political leaning:

Sorry but I avoid news from people who hate America, hate capitalism, and blames straight white men for everything.

Prefer to go straight to AP/Reuters rather than those that just rehash their stories. And aggregators like google news which will give you multiple sources for a particular story.

NYT, WaPo, LA Times, SF Chronicle, WSJ, Economist, Politico, Guardian, Der Speigel, Boston Globe

Y'all focus on the stupid politics when judging news outlets, but the real value are when these organizations put together in-depth investigative journalism pieces like what the Spotlight team did in Boston. That stuff is absolutely worth paying for.

You realize Alex Jones admitted it was all an act in his child custody hearing right? Or do you really believe there are lizard-alien people out there controlling things with fluoride induced mind control?

Hate to tell you BBC voters but it is notoriously biased. Very Left wing.

Its definitely not the Clinton News Network! Or the WaPo. What disgraces.

I wanted to write the BBC, but can't remember if it was either them or the Canadian Broadcasting Service that was completely loony during their 2016 election coverage.
