Please provide unbiased news sources? What would you consider to be a simple reporting of facts? |
I would say every single news source has bias of some sort.
X or various other forums or media might be the best at the moment, due to the "everything goes" attitudes. Just learn to view it all and filter. |
AP and BBC
X is a total $hit show of bots, trolls, and disinformation. Americans have proven they are not smart enough to sort through it for real news. Plus, no one should be supporting Musk. Get off X. |
Sounds.... authoritarian. Democracy is dangerous in that regard, as it depends on an intelligent populace. So are you against democracy? |
Republican here. I don't think there is such a thing as unbiased media. I read Axois daily and it's among the least biased news, but it's still quite biased.
The Daily Rip newsletter is financial news, but covers a lot of ground. And I find it to be fairly straightforward and less biased. |
Sounds…like an observation and a fact. They just put a twice impeached criminal in office who willingly delivered a Cold War victory to an actual authoritarian. |
I read bbc, AP, Al Jazeera, fox and cnn.
Somewhere in the middle of all that I figure there’s the truth. |
Agree. X is an absolute shtshow. It’s propaganda drivel. |
Playing devil's advocate, I have no side here, just curious. What do you propose then? You say the public is too dumb to decide for themselves, so then elections are off the table. What form of government would you propose, or would you scrap all forms of government and try a peaceful anarchy situation? |
Why don't you tell us what *you* consider unbiased news sources? CNN? MSNBC? Do tell! |
WSJ and Axios, among others. |
NP. I am a moderate, pro-labor Democrat who knew Trump was going to win months ago, just to lay out my political leanings. I do not believe there are any unbiased or even trustworthy news sources. I consume a very wide array of media sources and reach conclusions from that. And I mean very, very wide: like Daily Wire on one end, Mother Jones on the other.
I 100% do not trust mainstream media like NYT, WaPo, BBC, etc. |
I'm politically opposite of you, yet share all the same opinions and behaviors around media. There's hope for us yet! |

Yes, but so is Bluesky - though I'm sure you'll argue it's not because it aligns with your political views. ![]() |
