I read the NY Times, the L.A. Times, and the New Yorker, both online and in print.
The main news outlets — the NY Times, the L.A. Times, The New Yorker, The Wall Street Journal, CNN, MSNBC, NPR, Politico, ProPublica, PBS, BBC, Al Jazeera, etc. — are all highly reliable, as they have been for years.
Their reporters dig up the facts, double-check them, and their editors keep an experienced eye on everything.
It doesn’t get any better than that.
Social media has none of that. Any fool can post any lie, any rumor, any BS, at any time.
