Not one liberal wants to come out and say who they trust because they later won't be able to say, "That's a dumb site. You really believe that?"

I’m not a lib but I’ve been watching News Nation. They seem to make a concerted effort to be middle of the road

Yes to these, and I trust ABC, NBC and CBS to a certain degree as well. 

I look aggregate sites such as Yahoo and Google to get a wider variety, which often incudes Fox and CNN.

It seems like CNN has moved closer to the middle. 

This chart does a good job of pinpointing where outlets stand in regard to bias and facts.

Anderson Pooper is a flaming Libtard. There's nothing middle about him or his views.

I'm talking about the everyday news coverage, not the nightly anchors. I don't watch Anderson Cooper. 

Say what you will about Rachel Maddow, but she's done some excellent work in regard to detailing from the past and chilling parallels to what's going on today, such as Trumpism and the far right and the similarities to the rise of fascism and authoritarianism prior to World War II.

I also read the New York Times and Wall Street Journal. They kind of balance out each other. 

Interested Times column today, written by a guy who is pretty conservative, even to the point that life begins at conception and agreeing with the abortion laws in places such as Texas and Florida.

He's sees MAGA as something that has hijacked the Republican party, and to do his part to save conservatism from MAGA, he's voting for Harris-Walz.

I'm right there with him, although I'm more moderate. 

Trump and MAGA are seriously underestimating the number of conservatives who will vote for Harris-Walz.

Trump has said he's going to focus on issues instead of personal attacks, but I don't see that leopard changing his spots, and he will continue to dig his political grave with his outlandish behavior at campaign rallies and news conferences.

He's pandering to his base and bullying people instead of bringing positive energy into his campaign to match what's going on in his opponent's camp.

Are you even remotely capable of having a thoughtful, intelligent discussion instead of reaching into tired bag of trite remarks?

Rhetorical question.

I do my share of trolling, but I balance that out with reasonable discussions and leaving politics out of non-political threads, particularly football-related threads, even taking part in a fantasy league, many of whose members are folks I spare with daily over here. 

But this clown ... sheesh ...

Gotta love Pedocrats. 

It's like when they say "I didn't vote for Biden". Nobody admits it but somebody did, so they say.

Technically there was a vote for Biden attached to their name if they physically did not vote for Biden.

I am an independent. The BBC and the Daily Mail are the places I get my news. The AP is no longer an option. They have been appropriated by the left just like CNN.

That Dana Bash interview of JD Vance was right down the middle of the road. Now I see why you all call yourselves centrists. Lol

Yeah unfortunately I agree with you about the AP.   They seem to have drifted further left lately.

My thing is I generally believe all media is biased.  Everyone.  Unbiased media is as dead as---dead.  So I keep that in mind when checking out their products.  I go to CNN sometimes, cause they have some decent, non political content.  FOX is my main go to and their bias is right in your face.  Yahoo is OK..Cause I can pick and choose which articles I might want to read.  Generally I scan headlines...Many times you can deduce whether an article has lean by the headline.

You are getting news as credible as you would from The National Enquirer or The New York Post.

Shouldn't liberals and conservatives find the same sources to be reliable?  If not, there is most likely some heavy bias.

I thought the AP was safe but some fact checking I posted that they did was dismissed as being biased. 😁

I disagree. I have looked at the same exact stories in the NYP or the Wapo and found that the reporting on the same story is better in the Mail. I am not just taking the word of a random stranger. I am literally doing my own research and what it has told me is that the Mail is less biased.
