I, like many of us I'm sure, read a lot online, and I (mostly) enjoy it. Whether that's social media, news sites, blogs, etc. However, I have increasingly noticed how much of what I read online is opinion, rather than facts, as you would expect from the likes of Social Media, blogs etc.
Does anyone have any tips (opinions?) on great places to find interesting factual or historical content?
Perhaps without the 'entry fee' of a book - more places to start learning about something, before then taking the book route!
Thank you.
