Where do you read the news?

>> No.13000676

IN THE TWENTYFIRST CENTURY, WHAT IS RELEVANT IS NOT «THE WHERE», BUT, RATHER, «THE FROM WHERE», AND «THE HOW».

Elaborate, please. I'm genuinely curious.

I follow Michael Tracey and Aaron Mate on Twitter and read pretty much everything else on The Hill's app.

«THE WHERE»: MEDIUM IS PRESUMED, LOCATION IS OBVIATED, BEING REDUCED TO PARTICULAR, VAGUE, PLACES —EXEMPLI GRATIA: «THE PARK», «THE OFFICE», «HOME», ET CETERA.

«THE FROM WHERE»: FROM BED, FROM THE KITCHEN, FROM SCHOOL, FROM THE TOILET, FROM WHAT CITY, FROM WHAT STATE, FROM WHAT COUNTRY, FROM WHAT CONTINENT, ET CETERA.

«THE HOW»: VIA MOBILE DEVICE, VIA STATIONARY DEVICE, VIA SOCIAL NETWORK, VIA PAPER, ET CETERA.

The New York Times. No seriously it's better than 99% of the shit out there and if you respect the opinion page as opinion you can see them as nearly objective.

Also a neighborhood paper I guess but that’s limited to a few thousand people

Almost exclusively things related to the neighborhood, so local and state politics that affect us, summaries of recent and upcoming events at the churches and schools attended by the residents, upcoming events, speeches, things like that. If your small town has a paper they are probably very similar

As part of morning i look through AP and The Hill for US news , BBC for foreign and Slashdot for tech.

I usually also skim The Guardian and NYT to know what i can expect others to talk about.

It's worth looking at propaganda every ones in a while. Again, just know what others are thinking.

Lol it's literally owned and managed by close friends of the obama and clintons' campaign manager. Not a fan of trump or republicans myself, but come on don't pretend this is objective; they push a very specific neoliberal agenda

I don't, I rely exclusively on the first-hand testimony of oracles and lunatics.

Face it - none of you know, nor will you ever know, what's actually going on in the world, and I'm having a lot more fun

I go to r/worldnews and r/politics and read the headlines then go to the comments section of the ones that interest me and never read the article.

You're absolutely correct, but it is very hard to find a serious newspaper with less serious bias than these. Once you 're able to identify clearly these bias it's not that bad.
Otherwise the financial times gives some very good insights about the cogs of financial capitalism. Unfortunately politics cannot understand the FT

I stopped reading the news. Focusing on events in your actual life that you can actually have some influence on is the winning strategy.

I read a local weekly magazine and a couple of monthly magazines. Daily news are stupid concept, why would I pay for something that goes bad faster than milk. I want analysis, not to drown in an endless wave of menial crap which I couldn't actually digest. Magazines and newspapers are superior format compared to the internet, as you will be forced to see things that don't particularly "interest" you.

>> No.13002537

Reuters, AP, some hot takes from The Economist. While I follow lots of news agencies I really don't read anything else. Oh and my local news obviously. Following world politics all the time alienates you from what's happening near you.
