I always struggle with what sources I should be reading for news (particularly political news). I don’t want to read only sources that I agree with, but I also struggle finding news sources that aren’t sensationalist and put forward varied view points. Here are a few of the places I frequent (criticism of these sources or other recommendations are welcome.) I don’t think my political news sources are well varied so any recommendations there would be great as well.
- hackernews
- arstechnica
- the economist
- axios
- MIT News
- Wired
What are you thoughts on whistle blowing sites like WikiLeaks?
Also, SCMP?
Is it worth reading wikileaks directly? I see now that they have regular posts on their site, but I never read those before.
I read it sometimes when it gets linked, but their political views are too pro-capitalist for me.
this article made me wanna hurl.
they almost make it sound like a bad thing. Good satire.
