In this time of hyper information, social media spectacles, fear mongering, and sometimes outright propaganda, I thought it would be interesting to see what news sources people here consider decent enough to take somewhat at their word. I know there are internet sites rating news sites and newspapers, but going through them is boring.
Since I'm Swedish, I'd start with saying that if you ever want decent Swedish news there are three newspapers worth something: Dagens Nyheter, Svenska Dagbladet and Göteborgsposten. They all have their biases, but they take news reporting seriously.
When it comes to other countries I'm less sure what I can trust somewhat. In England I'd guess the Guardian and BBC? In US maybe NY Times, Washington post, Wall Street journal? I have no idea what TV channels have decent news.
I'd love to hear about news sources in other languages than English as well, since that would make it fun to Google translate some articles about recent news and happenings. Sometimes it would be great to read news about a country from the countries' own media sources.
I understand some will disagree on what is a good source, and reading that can be interesting as well, since it might add to the understanding of biases a news source might have.
