    I do not Trust any of them. That is why I read different headlines from all over the world. It also amazing what is considered news, be it online or tv, or country.
    So, read a bit of this one and that , then try to determine how much of it has any truth.

    The better question might be “ which news commentary / opinion outlets do you trust” merely because there’s no such thing as hearing nor reading just the world nor national news any longer.

    Short answer. None.

    I am of like mind with @Hedi Mitchell. Not trusting any single news organization or site, I tend to scan a variety of different sources, keeping in mind that many, if not most, have an agenda. In general, I tend to treat a news report like a hypothesis ti be tested and confirmed.

    My thoughts on "news" sources based on true events >>> "Riots, forest fires, kindling and matches, a turkey impregnates a duck now we see what hatches."

    I like the alternative sometimes even radical if they have mostly facts or at least broadcast news others don't.

    I like this woman below,

    I alos like radio news shoes like Ben Shapero. heard one last week all should listen to. Candice Owen put the blm and blacks in particular problem better than I've ever heard it talked about.

    @Ken Anderson ,just thinking of the subject you mentioned on another thread that reminded me of Candice on this show last week. Her and Ben are very intelegent people, fast talkers,:p but very wise.
