Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

How so? I heard they were right wing. But back in the day, I read about Israel in them, they were honest. In explaining Israel segregating palestinians into what amounts to ghettos.
They're a tabloid and do not have journalistic integrity. I can't say many outlets do now, but they absolutely do not.
Someone else said something similar. I don't doubt they went to shit. But even when I read truthful information on Israel circa 2000, I think they were known to be conservative-ish, I think, but that was different than it is today, to be a conservative.
Yeah from what I could find, historically they were reliable news, but now they're just sensationalist rage bait bullshit machine.
There are precious few reputable publications left. A number still in periodicals, but for daily news we are fucked. Nothing locally, just the guardian and reuters, or the ap, and reuters is letting a little more bias creep in, they don't seem to care for the socialists for instance.
But fuck, there is nothing left, almost nothing. A handful of periodicals, and some limey daily news orgs.
And it is fast getting worse too. The law will soon be further weaponized against news orgs too.
Semafor seems alright, relatively new on the block but great bias scores and high accuracy, global outlet on inception too
Oh wow thanks! I desperately need news sources.
What else we need, off subject a bit, is search engines that deliver what we are asking for. in 2021 they stopped. Many previously easy to find articles, no longer available, even with exact information. Not a one off it's all sorts of stuff they are maximizing revenue in an illegal trust led by the big one there but this is all another story.
How hard would it be for us to make an open source search engine? Because without that, nothing else matters, because the bad guys will win. Melodramatic sounding or not, I believe that to be the truth.
Found it.

Disclosure, haven't watched this but it looked like the right amount of time for a deep dive
I've heard good things about kagi I think or searchxrg I think it's called or maybe searxng or something. And yes, it's my least favorite thing. I have yet to fix that, but it's high on the list.
I believe that searxng is foss could be wrong.
