What news sources do you all consider to be the most reliable?

My follows ✌️
Usually people on the ground, at the actual site of the news. Hearing what multiple are saying on “X” for example.
(Never the news)
Me personally, none. I watch C-SPAN, I’m into the markets so I’m always on Kitco. Public Substack (Michael Shellenberger’s project), Cato Institute, Copenhagen Consensus Center and other raw data sources. Hardly ever “the news”, or mainstream media. Although I am a Conservative and Republican, I lost all faith in Fox, save for Will Cain, Levin and Kudlow. Those ppl aren’t really “news” though as much as they are journalists or insight folks.
I forgot about C-SPAN. I like the focus on providing live access to congressional proceedings without any commentary or analysis.
If you watch the same incident reported on 5 different "news" organisations, you might get a sliver of the truth. You must take in multiple perspectives and decide what you think is correct.
I gave up on traditional news sources. Occasionally I'll read Epoch Times.
I don't have a TV... I curate from the bird app... But mostly don't really need to be involved in the circus.
Al Jazeera 🫡
None. The financial markets are a good tell once you can read them, but news in almost all formats is worthless now. I came off all social media and stopped following the news 3-4 months ago and my life got nothing but better for it. The news now is just there to get you to worry about things that don't effect you or you have no control over.
