Tea leaves are pretty competitive these days.

Not American, so I usually check the front page of CNN to get a general sense of what the media is talking about right now. I get a lot of my political news from Seth Meyers’ and Stephen Colbert’s monologues as well, since the snark is fun.

For local and regional news I use the CBC and my local newspaper.

And I guess Lemmy, but that’s more of a secondary source than a resource I think of when I’m searching for current events.

A mix of local news paper and Ground News

NPR, BBC, Al Jazeera, listen to a daily set of audio briefs from those sources. There is a significant bias in all of them, offset by tempering of social media sources.
