My food pantry deliveries for my needy working families are getting cut and an extremely wealthy individuals are getting tax cuts. I can feel angry about that all by myself without anybody telling me how to feel

So you don't need cable news

NPR and?

The advertising model on websites collapsed, so if you want news from real journalists, the journalists need to be paid. Ergo, pick two or three platforms and pony up. Otherwise, you are going to be left with propaganda and garbage.

Democracy dies in darkness….

Maybe you're asking the wrong question.

If it's free, are they just telling you what you want to hear and more opinion than hard news?

I am cost cutting, job market is bad, but I need to read news to stay current.

But please donate to AP

Wired is doing great work and I think they are running special pricing that is practically free.

Not OP, but yeah. I canceled cable a few years ago so no longer get CNN and Fox. Regular news that comes on ABC, NBC and local news is all I need to watch these days. It gives me an overall outlook on what's going on in the world and I don't have to pay for it.

News should be free.

If you want good journalism that isn’t biased, skip. Especially now with ad nauseum discussion of Biden’s health and fitness, without any mention of Trump’s.

The Guardian. Excellent and free. they may ask you to register for free and you can donate money if you want, but it is otherwise free and a truly excellent online newspaper

This. And I’d add AP news.

Avoid cable news like the plague. Their profit motive is to keep you angry, not informed.
