    They’re a tabloid and do not have journalistic integrity. I can’t say many outlets do now, but they absolutely do not.

      Someone else said something similar. I don’t doubt they went to shit. But even when I read truthful information on Israel circa 2000, I think they were known to be conservative-ish, I think, but that was different than it is today, to be a conservative.

        Yeah from what I could find, historically they were reliable news, but now they’re just sensationalist rage bait bullshit machine.

          There are precious few reputable publications left. A number still in periodicals, but for daily news we are fucked. Nothing locally, just the guardian and reuters, or the ap, and reuters is letting a little more bias creep in, they don’t seem to care for the socialists for instance.

          But fuck, there is nothing left, almost nothing. A handful of periodicals, and some limey daily news orgs.

          And it is fast getting worse too. The law will soon be further weaponized against news orgs too.

            Semafor seems alright, relatively new on the block but great bias scores and high accuracy, global outlet on inception too

              Oh wow thanks! I desperately need news sources.

              What else we need, off subject a bit, is search engines that deliver what we are asking for. in 2021 they stopped. Many previously easy to find articles, no longer available, even with exact information. Not a one off it’s all sorts of stuff they are maximizing revenue in an illegal trust led by the big one there but this is all another story.

              How hard would it be for us to make an open source search engine? Because without that, nothing else matters, because the bad guys will win. Melodramatic sounding or not, I believe that to be the truth.
