Recommendations for Unbiased News Outlets?


Almost all media is now visibly biased on issues like Ukraine conflict, Turkish elections, China geopolitical actions, including supposedly reputable news sources. I am looking for a news source that provides balanced coverage of current political and economic events without significant bias on hot topics . Can anyone recommend something that is more about facts and less about opinions and media's political agendas? Thank you!

I would suggest the Associated Press https://apnews.com/

I think they try to focus on the facts but sometimes the facts have a liberal bias.

It probably doesn't exist. Every media outlet in existence produces their media in the context of their ideology. Anything that seems like it's "not political" is likely framing things within a Neoliberal context, as it's status quo and least likely to be seen as "extreme". Sometimes the extremists give the story straighter than the "unbiased" folks.

The best thing to do is not to look for some magical "unbiased truth", but to look at each situation from the perspective of many different sources/ideologies.

Local news from the location of the news-worthy-event is usually a good source for raw details like who what where and when, but be aware that most local news leans heavily towards the right-wing.
