[@Dark Wind][@mdk] I'd love to know what network/site/paper you consider [i]reliable[/i] news.

Ive got no problem shitting on CNN, but you sort of begin to lose credibility if you think infowars, rebel media or fox news are the trustworthy alternatives.[/quote]

I get my news from BBC, and I read Fox News for flavor. Fox is [i]absolutely[/i] more trustworthy than CNN, but that's not really the point -- I don't think anybody should [i]trust[/i] their news source. If you trust them, they're getting shit past you. I used to read exclusively CNN, but they became unbearable over the last six months and I've had to turn 'em off entirely. 

Anyway the proper response to a news article is "Really? Is THAT what you think? Lemme see about that." BBC gives me that, plus some really good (often agenda-driven, but hey) journalism. CNN gives me that "oh for fuck's sake" attitude (like when they write about how it's racist to withdraw from the Paris Accord) and that's not getting me anywhere. 

In general, I recommend that people should get their news from somebody they dislike but can tolerate. This approach keeps you informed without playing into your own bias.
