I regularly visit www.drudgereport.com www.zerohedge.com and www.bloomberg.com They give me a lot of information and entertainment and they are free. I don't do Facebook or Twitter. I'd like to know what sites other people on this plaza regularly visit. I still find it amazing that with the touch of a finger a person can go any where in the world.

Wall Street Journal, The Congressional Register, the Government Accountability Office.... There are plenty of official sources. I must say I find an organization calling itself Government Accountability to be something of an oxymoron. "Government" and "accountability" don't usually belong in the same sentence. They rarely belong in the same zip code.

You can't trust anything on the TV. Fox is only there to do battle with the rest to cover up anything really important. no media will say a word unless it's covering up something. They try to confuse us but we all know that only works on half of us. I try using the internet at different pages, subtract the spin, and form an opinion. The l*****t piss in a hat , put it on their head, hit their self in the head with a 48 oz. hammer until reaching grey matter and form an opinion when their head is being stitched up at a shoe repair shop.

How about government intelligence? The Central INTELLIGENCE Agency?

y report from

In m opinion the best sources for news are agencies that invest the most in reporters on the ground. The BBC has reporters all over the world who live in the places they report from. For national news NPR is fed from their affiliate stations reporters all over the country. Outfits that repackage and comment on the work of others are worthless. As far as print journalism the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal and Guardian all have large staffs of professional reporters who write about what they know about and follow professional standards.

People say that some sites are unbiased, but I have never found one. Just go to what ever site is in your particular point of view and when you find a story that interests you, go to the opposite bias websites and check it against those. Sometimes I will post the version of the story from an opposite site just so those who I know will dispute it's accuracy, have a more difficult time.

Personally, I only go to sites that just report the news - no editorializing, no theorizing and no conspiracy theories. I know that's boring, but I want facts.............and I never take just one sources word for anything.

It is amazing that so much information is available a click away, so much so that one can become overwhelmed pretty quickly. What many don't realize, is that the internet does not have a omniscient editor monitoring content for veracity.....................so any but job, soccer mom, international terrorist, psychopath, politician, nerd, criminal, anybody at all, can post stuff - and only the reader/viewer is responsible for determining the difference between BS and the for realz.

Some where I got a reference to. www.mediabiasfactcheck.com. and visited the site. The number of news sources listed and rated is astounding. Nobody today can be excused for not being informed.
