Looking for a (relatively trustworthy) news website.

What it says on the tin. I've been looking at the Guardian but they don't cover everything I'd like. Mostly I'm looking for a focus in world news that isn't TOO biased one way or the other.

Preferably in English.  :razz:

I wake up and check /r/worldnews every morning.

I've been doing that, but it seems that the titles posted are always sensational and "clickbait-y", for lack of a better word. Plus the fact that if you look at the comments that subreddit is a tumor.

For video game related shit: Go to some forum pages.
For other related shit: Go to CNN's website.

I love this thread lmao.

I like to cross reference things. The Guardian, and Reuter's are usually not bad. You can use things like CNN and the AP but definitely cross reference. You'll almost always find the same story but without the twist.

The trick is to take the two most biased news sources on either side of the spectrum, and the real news is somewhere in the middle of that.

I recommend Fox News and The New York Times. Take an article from each about the same topic, and the truth will be somewhat of a blend of the two.
