What news sources do you trust?

None, although there is a difference in the levels of my disbelief. I always try to check multiple sources and if it is possible multiple languages too. I do think many journalists, particularly in online news, let themselves be inspired by each other or just copy press releases from large agencies. Not their fault, it is mostly because of economic pressure, but this is the current reality.

But even the news sources I trust most are prone to errors. We also have a lot more opinion pieces. I like to read them too, but along many papers you can see a lot of uniformity, even if the authors at least try to hide it in subtext. That can undermine trust in news publications because I believe this to have an influence on general reporting.

I trust most of our high-quality mainstream news as well as our national broadcasting company, but I’m Danish, so that probably doesn’t help HN much.

As far as more international news I trust the guardian, Dee spiegel, the New York Times and the BBC, as well as the national news stations of Norway and Sweden.

For me, the short answer is "not one above another". If you can read multiple languages, getting a wide(r) view of news from papers is really valuable.

Also, reading around, digging deeper and looking at the same story from, say, your local news org, a national news org and something like Al-Jazeera is really informative.

I do not trust any news source. I take a quick broad view from different news content providers. From social media and the usual big press organisations, TV and radio which gives me a general view. If something interests my curiosity, I then dig deeper into these sources in an attempt to find the vein of truth.

Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, New York Times
