[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course it exists. The WSJ, WaPo, NYT, BBC, NPR. In spite of rightwing fantasies about mainstream media being "leftist," all these publications publish the news. Stay away from the editorial pages, and you are getting...news. [/quote]

I generally agree and think there are even more than listed here.

But, I think the NYT has definitely slipped and has a clear liberal bias in how and what they cover in their news sections.

Washington Post can come close to this, but inconsistent.  Much of their coverage is very middle of the road/unskewed.  But often their editorial choices of what they cover/don’t cover appear politically/ideologically motivated.

NPR’s news and editorializing has gotten pretty blurry in the last 5 years.

I would add:
FT
Economist
The wire services

I also think there’s value in the pubs that have blantantly one-sided content that are meant to inform/explain a perspective, or make a cohesive argument from a particular ideology, but arent trying to shroud their bias as “news” and are reasonably intellectual.  I’m thinking of the Atlantic, Foreign Affairs, the Spectator, occasionally the New Republic (less so in recent years).
