Where do you get your non-tech news from?

I outsourced my news consumption to coworkers, friends and family. After being a news enthusiast this change is more than welcome because I found that 99.9% doesn't offer actionable information and that .1% you find out anyway.

I follow Ezra Klein's NYT column: https://www.nytimes.com/column/ezra-klein

NHK newsline, live news on the hour (in English)

They also have some interesting programming every now and then.

I discovered it when traveling in Asia, and just kind of kept watching it regularly. It's not necessarily an aggregator but it is global news with more of a focus on Asia.

The local radio news. It takes 3 minutes or so a day and is followed by the weather, which ends up mattering a lot more than most news do for me.

I don't want to aggregate news, because that would just give me ten wrong perspectives on a subject I don't care about and/or upset me for no reason.

Really I just want to know that nothing terrible and relevant has happened, so my ideal news source would just be empty 99.99% of the time.

Allsides.com. I get to see different perspectives from right/center/left on the same or similar topics. I think this is US only news however.

Zerohedge. Very good in-depth coverage of financial matters, as well as political ones.

I read news with https://sumi.news - it aggregates everything on page grouped by source. I also have the source customized with RSS feeds, newsletters, and Twitter.

The Current Events page on Wikipedia[0].

I also check the AP.

Politics: Breaking Points - Krystal Ball (liberal) and Saagar Enjeti (conservative) decided to make a show that cuts through ALL of the partisan crap, and focuses on the important stuff.

Stuff about war, politics, etc... - Beau of the Fifth Column, the man knows his shit, and has seen a lot of stuff around the world, and calls it like he sees it.

General news - Phil Defranco

I don't trust anyone who helped lie us into Iraq, so most of the media is out for me.

I've got lots of others, here's my list of youtube channels I subscribe to - https://www.youtube.com/user/ka9dgx/channels
