What are your 3 (or more) TOP NEWS SOURCES?? Do they confirm or challenge your views?
Reuters
BBC
PBS
Which I would say, in general confirm.
In seeking news I prob use them about 30% +/- of the time..
Often times when someone posts a link & I check the source, I will lurk around, eventhough it's going to challenge my views.
I feel I see/learn a much rounder view.
I do the same w/ several of the Market/business sites I go to as well.
I would also add JPP also/other posters here..
"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

“If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

BBC,NPR,CNN and I scan through others. I read local paper. I often watch Maddow too. She is smart and cleans the right-wing dust from the news. I watch Frontline and 60 Minutes too.

SF Chronicle & Wall St Journal. Used to read the Economist on a weekly basis, not as much now.
Will listen to NPR in the car. Sometimes I'll even listen to KPFA free speech radio (the station that hosts Amy Goodwin and Democracy Now and makes NPR look right wing).

I have reached the point in life where I do not want to clutter up my brain with the day-to-day minutia of the 24 hour news cycle, the current score on the political horse race, nor do I think it even matters that much.
I pretty much can get as much as I need about the day-to-day horse race just through osmosis. On a sidebar, I do think it is important to not just rely on domestic American sources of information.
The only print media I read on a regular basis are National Geographic and Smithsonian. I believe one could actually lead a well-lived life just consistently reading those two.
I have consciously shifted my mind from the ephemeral and temporal, towards the philosophical and all-encompassing. I am interested in absorbing information about racism. Social justice. Economic justice. Temperance versus retribution and vengeance. Democracy versus oligarchy. Capitalism versus democratic socialism. How is a well-ordered, virtuous society constructed, and what it the best form of government – aka, questions in the intellectual traditions of Confucius and Plato.
To that end, I spend considerable time with books, novellas, and other medium of scholarly knowledge. But I try to leave plenty of time for comic books and cartoons as well!
I get a lot of my news from the Internet. On TV, I watch FOX and the local news, sometimes CNN or CNBC. I read some of the overseas publications online.
Of course, I have to turn to MSNBC whenever things like Mueller time occurs, just to witness the meltdowns.
