Just wondered where everyone gets their up to date news from now days, if you check the net it trashes the beeb, last 5 years I've tended to not read any of it ...always reverting to the tin foil hat if I'm needing some factual truth ,

Waiting to see what GB News will be like when it launches later this year. BBC have been unwatchable for quite some time now....

In the mornings I switched from watching BBC breakfast news to Euronews. It's still BS I mostly put it on for background noise. It covers more global affairs rather than the same drivel about covid every morning... Not so sure about RT or Al Jaz! Occasionally put them on for a laugh

Well, not here! It's mostly prophets of fecking doom on here. :)

For me, a fairly broad spread of sources of news: The Times, the Beeb (not clear to me why it gets trashed, but on the basis that it gets trashed equally from both sides of any argument I have to assume it's pretty impartial), the Guardian, CNN, the FT sometimes. Pistonheads. :)

My wife's more the news junkie. I'm a headline, comment and articles kind of person.

I have an FT subscription through work and personally pay for the Torygraph.

But I also use the BBC news app for a quick headline fix.

If you like a glass completely empty view of the world - zerohedge. It’s the antonym to something like Loaded and with out any tits.........except the ones who read it ;)

Don't watch any news except my local BBC area, no papers either, feel much less stressed by doing so.

I use the Reuters and Associated Press apps. AP can be US focused (and hates Trump) but it gives an objective view of UK and European (not EU) news.
