On the TV it seems to be the same old stuff day after day. So a cop kills somebody or does something wrong and they go on and on, but gangs kills so many people per day and not anything on the news about it. CNN, FOX news and all the rest of them are so full of dodo. By the way I am getting tired of paying for cable TV when I have to watch 25 minutes of commercials per hour, they should be paying us to watch it.

This will probably elicit sneering and snarkiness from the ultra right wingnuts, but you might be surprised by the quality of news reporting available on Al Jazeera America.

Do not rely on my recommendation and do not accept the predictable sneering and snarkiness from the wingers. Just check out Al Jazeera for yourself and make your own judgment.

"Almost two years later, the ratings have not come, nor have the profits. The station has been a nonfactor in news, drawing about 30,000 viewers a night. To make matters worse, in the last week, a lawsuit and an exodus of top executives have brought to the surface a series of grievances that employees say reflects a deep dysfunction in management of the newsroom, undermining the network’s mission."

And, in the 1030s, he would be a devoted reader of Der Sturmer and the Völkischer Beobachter .

Locally, I usually get it right off the police, fire, and EMS radio frequencies.  Nationally,  during the riots in Ferguson, I listened to MSHP through an app via a scanner feed.  Heard their dispatcher announce the verdict the minute it came down.  Can't beat hearing it unfiltered, as-it-happens reports by the agencies directly involved.

  For reports on world events (and a lot of national news) without a politically slanted commentary or bias, the BBC is pretty good. (Either online or via shortwave broadcast).  The last thing I'd ever do for news is turn on the TV. That's 'lowest common denominator' stuff.   If ya wanna know what's going on without all the partisan BS, listen to another country's news about it.

Al Jazeera's women reporters don't look as pretty as those on Fox and CNN.

But you do get their news..huh. It's not fair to compare men looking women

on Al Jazeera to foxy fox women. CNN women look nasty liberal. So what

you're saying is you're sexist....

If I were a famous actor, athlete, celebrity or some other in the news guy, no one would call me a hero, or say, I'm so proud of you. They would call me a dirty, sexist pig. Sorry about that, that's just the way it is, I like women.
