<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You have to ead bth conservative and liberal sites and watch actual full recordings of speeches to make sure things aren&#39;t taken out of context. Also, the main thing is you can&#39;t immediately say things are horrible until you have all the facts. It requires considerable reseach unfortunately.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I often like to check news from BBC. They&#39;re more likely to report US news without as much political leaning in either direction so a bit more factual.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There&#39;s opinion articles that jump to conclusions, and there&#39;s news articles that contain facts with an opinion leaning towards an agenda. One should learn to read between the lines, filter out emotions, and opinions while formulating your own. <br /><br />As I lean center left, I read right-wing articles so I can get a different perspective and have a middle grounded opinion.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You&#39;re making it too simplistic. While those sources you noted above absolutely have a tendency to report incomplete, unsubstantiated, and even downright false reports, they are still sources I use. Much in the same way I look at Fox, when I read something too good/bad to be true, I dig deeper and I look at the report as objective as possible to see what might be missing. Finally, I also try to look at it from the perspective of both sides, asking myself how would I look at this report if I were coming from the left/right&#39;s perspective. The media has done itself a huge disservice recently in their attacks against Trump. Seriously, had this level of rhetoric, unnamed sources, and focus been directed at our previous President, everyone of the responsible media sources would have been branded racist and &quot;fake&quot; just the same. <br /><br />My perspective as a conservative, I like fox because they report more about things I care about (call it the right leaning bias if you will). At times, I think they too push incomplete and unsubstantiated reports (although I think they do it less than many other sources lately). This is not to say I don&#39;t read or watch other sources. I like to know what they other side pushes, what they may neglect to report, and what might lead them to push that report. Gotta say, Trump may not be good at pointing out the bias and calling out the media&#39;s irresponsibility, but he does have a good point and the right to defend himself when attacked.<br /><br />So to answer your question more directly, I look at any and all sources for any and all the facts I can extract. Sometimes this requires multiple sources (including the ones you named) to get the whole picture. What I find humorous from many of the folks who post here is, they post an article as the truth to fit their narrative, but many times they don&#39;t even read or absorb the whole article. Furthermore, they also don&#39;t take the extra step to be a little objective and see if there is more to the story. All they do is copy/paste links from the most bias sources while failing to do some easy research which even those same sources failed to do. When I choose to post a link, I tend to purposefully find one from a source other than Fox or conservative leaning sites. I even conducted an experiment once by linking to a Fox URL, to which many immediately dismissed as biased because it&#39;s Fox. After a few of their dismissive posts, I then pointed out that it was an AP article posted by Fox. My point here is, don&#39;t pigeon hole yourself into a single source and debate your own preferred narrative before you decide to post the source as what you see to be 100% truth.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I don&#39;t trust ANY of them. It&#39;s just my personal opinion but I believe the decline of objective reporting began with the advent of 24-hr broadcast news channels. Seems they all started distorting, stretching, and exaggerating facts to fill up air time. You really have to dig down to the &quot;meat and potatoes&quot; of any article now to get the unbiased truth. BBC does seem to have less overt bias in their reporting of US events.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>That&#39;s an easy answer... none. There&#39;s no news source out there that is 100% reliable. They all have their own spin they put on a story, or embellish some facts while omitting others, or in some way do not report the whole, unequivocal truth. And that&#39;s at best. At worst, they will outright lie to us. FOX News used, in court, as a defense for firing two journalists, that they are not required to be truthful in the stories they air. And they won, based on that argument. Because they aren&#39;t required to tell the truth. Not a damned one of them. They do whatever they can to get ratings up for their advertisers, in order to make money. It&#39;s a business, and we&#39;re the product.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>What do conservatives in general think is accurate (notice in general not all): Breitbart, FoxNews, National Review, TownHall, CNS. <br /><br />Mainstream media in general is more about ratings than actually reporting. You&#39;re generally going to find people doing journalism more in local news (and yes I know they have their biases). Print news like local papers might be less biased than national media. <br /><br />The thing is journalists are human and there will always be an underlying bias in things they write whether it&#39;s intentional or not.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>While in Europe I found Al Jazeera had the most facts in their reports. In the US there is no accurate and factual news sources, the only way is get a glimmer of truth is to read them all and pick out the facts from the analysis understanding that each news source is biased in their own way.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>While I agree with others that any rational assessment of &quot;truth&quot; must include as many primary sources as possible, I&#39;ll try to answer your question with a personal top 3: Wall Street Journal and The Economist for national publications, and National Review for websites. There are many others, but any one source can make errors or include a slant in any one article.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Every news outlet has a slant however some are worse than others. The most fair reporting I&#39;ve seen comes from Al Jezeera. Granted their editorial department has a noted Arab centric slant. If that isn&#39;t your cup of tea I suggest reading both conservative and progressive outlets. Where the stories line up you have truth, where they diverge you have opinion pretending to be news. Look for just the facts and formulate your own opinion.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I use Fox News and the BBC as my primary news sources, though I do watch some of the others. There is certainly nothing wrong with verifying what is stated as &quot;news&quot; by checking on SNOPES or looking at other sources. They all seem to have some biases.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Honestly I don&#39;t find any of them to be 100% honest. When it comes to news I hit several, research and look into it from different angles to try to piece together the real story. Which is a shame, because they is what Journalists are supposed to do.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have to be honest with you... I used to be a Fox News watcher. However, I am having a challenge finding an unbiased reporting!<br />In my humble opinion, I have found the new News station &quot;One America News (OAN)&quot; to be the best source of news. <br />They are much like the old school days (60&#39;s and early 70&#39;s) where they may dedicate a single minute to each issue. Although they are conservative, their leanings are limited and you will learn about more news in 30 minutes than you will all day from the other &quot;news&quot; outlets combined!

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The age of news organizations that report &quot;All the facts that are fit to print&quot; are over. The vast majority of news outlets have replaced &quot;Facts&quot; about what has actually happened with incessant news &quot;Commentary&quot; that weighs heavily on personal bias, personal opinion, and the opinions of non-validated and anonymous sources. When CNN, NBC, ABC and CBS stick to the facts as they occurred, they are actually reporting the news. When they editorialize and repeat gossip from anonymous sources, as if the gossip was proven and factual i.e. the news, they are in essence reporting fake news, and that goes for every other news source.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There&#39;s actual and factual news Sir?<br />I&#39;m under the impression it&#39;s all tidbits with a lot of &quot;this is what I think because I&#39;m an Expert, etc...&quot; Filler. I think blood sells so to hell with what actually happened is the current objective of all news agencies. Perfect example is the report of a shooting and the news anchor jumps the gun and says it was an AR-15 with no evidence and not one word from the investigating officers.<br />I digress however, I personally think the news is full of a lot of crap and you need to watch them all, read the paper, and check online sources to get a better grasp of just one story.
