Just the memes, and then I hear someone mention some atrocity and I understand the half of them :p

An excellent source that I’m ashamed I only discovered recently. Consistently first-rate independent journalism on literally the most important subjects there are. Should be better known. Read. Donate.
Great other choices too.
I’m usually trusting Reuters or AP news
Though I’ve heard of ground.news and have been thinking about subscribing, DAE have experience with them? Are they as unbiased as they claim?
Reuters usually has half decent articles, but they’re owned by billionaires out of Canada. This look into them was done late last year: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174374
AP has some sketch board members as shown here: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174861
While Reuters is obviously written from a neoliberal perspective, I think as long as you are aware of that, their coverage is fine. It’s very fact based. It’s designed to provide information for investors who are trying to make money from current events, so they have an incentive to do accurate coverage, but of course they will mainly cover things that are relevant to the finance world.
