Newspaper reporting has become so extreme in its political bias and so utterly negative, that it is virtually useless as a source of information. "The popular press" has abandoned all pretence of publishing "news" in any serious sense of the word and has recently found an even deeper bottom to race to. The BBC is still excellent, but is coming under more and more Murdoch inspired political pressure, and will not be able to continue as it has.
So I follow a range of journalists and commentators on twitter -and follow links to articles that catch their eye (often in the Huff Post). But in doing so I have become my own editor and my own bias is creeping in - I enjoy reading stuff I agree with.
I was wondering where people go to keep themselves informed?
