Hey guys, what reliable, non-leftist media sources do you get your news from?

BBC is usually pretty good. They don't always say very positive things about the US, however, they are pretty objective.

Fox News, Drudge Report.

I usually compare several news agencies and sift through them, the facts are usually in there.

I use Drudge nearly exclusively these days. I used to subscribe to the Wall St. Journal, but after a while I realized that paper was simply a mouthpiece for the neocons who periodically win elections and, like their lefty brethren, set the nation on the road to disaster.

 

My wife gets the NY Times weekend editions delivered. I won't be getting a divorce over this, but since that whitewash article on Benghazi a few weeks ago I won't even do the crossword puzzle, much less open the paper or visit their website.

 

I also used to subscribe to about 20 "pro-gun, pro-God" blogs but to tell the truth they recycle material like nobody's business. I'm down to the Washington Times, Hoover Institute, and 1-2 others.

It's all partisan crap, both sides. I just get news feeds from both sides and average out the stupid. 

Magazine called The Week presents news articles from the week before and always presents an oppsing viewpoint to the one in the original.

Thanks guys! I'll look into these. I usually use Google but I wanted to see if there's any kind of printed media that most feel would help enlighten me without me drinking kool-aid.

The blaze actually is quite good.

One of my former coworkers and good friend is their head web tech guy. I was also fortunate enough to talk with Glenn Beck when he was at Fox.

Honestly I read the Wall Street Journal and listen to NPR.  

 

I don't consider NPR to be "liberal" at all, at least not when it comes to the NPR News and their financial show "Marketplace."

There is no single media outlet that can be depended on to report unbiased news.  What I've found works best for me is to follow a story instead of a media outlet.  When there is a story that is important to me, I will spend hours researching it over a period of days or sometimes weeks.  It is not unusual for me to visit 25 to 50 different sources when researching big stories, accessing national, international left leaning and right leaning sites for information.  The bottom line here is; If you want as much of the truth as one can possibly find about a story, you will have to work for it.

LOL, NPR is Sesame Street for adult sheeple with liberal, statist, dependency tendencies.  But to your point, you have to admit the limousine liberals and their ilk do like THEIR cash flow and want to keep THEIR money all the while they are figuring out ways of taking YOURS away through regulations and taxation.  Seemingly, these individuals collectivistically, also don't always find a lot of their hard earned money finding its ways into helping those with need.  Maybe they feel that that is the job of the government, solely.  Anyway, in the spirit of thrifthood and making some crony capitalistic cash,  good financial advice is probably given from those familiar with and ushering in the policies to destroy the middle class by and large and take more of YOUR income.   It's interesting how the IRS attacks nonprofit Tea Party affiliated groups and yet not only is politically motivated spoon-fed sheeple feeding NPR left alone, it is funded, instead!  It is funded because it cannot stand on its own, its pathetic feel-good, take-no-responsibility message has to be government and Soros sponsored.

CNN. I think it represents the closest to middle ground reporting than any other big, basic cable news station. Granted, the second you throw news commentary shows into the mix, it's all garbage no matter the channel.

 

If I had Aljazeera I would watch that. BBC is good as well.

 

Other than that, I follow various Reddit subreddits for daily news. If I'm looking to be informed on a particular issue, I'll try and find some primary sources via Google.

Based on what evidence is NPR run by liberal statists?

In my opinion, as far as CNN goes, there is no middle ground, anywhere.  CNNs usefulness can be expressed by its diminishing audience and its capability of only telling a very small slanted piece of the story.

There are no "reliable media sources". I watch Fox News, with a grain of salt.

Back in 2011, "On the Media" host Bob Garfield said, "If you were to somehow poll the political orientation of everybody in the NPR news organization and all of the member stations, you would find an overwhelmingly progressive, liberal crowd..."   And, if that is true, and you don't think that they bring out their opinions, agendas, etc. through comments, programming, commercial choices, etc., then you are in dream land.  That bias oozes out... 

 

It would be nice for "diversity" (especially with public funding and the fact that there are about 25% of population liberal and double that conservative and the rest somewhere in the middle), it would be nice to include "conservative" as well, by the way.   And, when listening, you will see that numerous people are labeled as conservatives, even derogatory things such as teabaggers (see Malik, etc.), but you hardly ever hear any mention of labeling such as liberals, progressives, etc. and I believe that is largely because they want to make their "Left" views accepted as mainstream center.

 

The liberal slant of NPR is subtle, but if you are in-tune, you will notice that there are many more obvious liberal stories than conservative stories.  If you understand the agenda of the Left, progressive, new-world orderers you will find that the programming is in lock step with that agenda.   See which new books are reviewed, ones promoting liberal thought or conservative thought?

 

The messages that these news reporters (very selective and telling only part of the story) spout often talks about sympathy for the underdog, an underdog that is not responsible for his or her own actions.  Hours would be spent discussing the need to rehabilitate revolving door criminal thugs and no attention to victims.  It is anti-gun, anti-fossil fuels, whenever it can subtly, or not so subtly be brought out.   And, really hard-left liberals have a mouth-piece on the station.

 

There was eight years of daily beating up Bush, but where is any criticism of the Czar-in-Chief?
.

Perhaps the most blatant example was the treatment of the moderate liberal, Juan Williams, because of his "muslim" comment, but really because of his affiliation with Fox News.   That would never happen to an extreme-left leaning liberal at the station. 

 

We could talk about things like Terry Gross, a totally unbiased liberal, celebrated Rachel Maddow.  Hannity's ratings are much higher, but the focus was on supporting  a fellow liberal outlet and its liberal programming.

 

This could go on and on... Soros funds much of NPR.  That is enough said...

 

But, perhaps in NEW JERSEY, NPR is just mainstream.

He's a sell-out. 

Why would you need to go outside this forum? We have weather weenies, conspiracy theorists, major news station repeaters and more all in one place!

I agree, and you should Michael.  Get your information from a variety of sources, and then search your feelings, you will know it to be true.  Try to analyze and absorb that media,  but look for logical arguments and separate facts and logic from emotional expressions and drivel.  Don't succumb to the dark and emotional side.  Agendas are everywhere!

I would settle for some diaper rash and chafing rather than use that paper to wipe my cheeks with, even if that was all that was unsold and laying about. 

So, why is the data from only (3) selected days at selected hours?  You cannot be serious analyzing that data... 

 

Surely it's not a comprehensive look, but it does provide some insight into what the major news networks prioritize, especially during prime time. It's a self-admitted snapshot.

Actually, I am one of those leftest elitist.  It even says so above my picture. Last I checked, conservatives aren't the only group with a self-interest in self-defense.  And you got me, I am trying to figure out how to take your money away.  I always want more.
