What are your preferred news sources?

Aside from this esteemed website, what are your other sources of news?

I Use Google Play Newsstand (both the site and the Android app):

https://newsstand.google.com/

BTW, even if you don't like Newsstand for consuming news, keep in mind that following topics and publications in Newsstand (eg. https://newsstand.google.com/my/library) also affects the cards shown in the Google App feed (née Google Now), and the Newsstand web UI is much easier to use for managing/following lots of topics.

I'm less certain as to how data about in-feed user actions ("Recommend fewer stories like this" and similar affordances) are shared between the two venues. It seems intermittent or episodic, rather than continuous.

https://www.wikitribune.com is my hope for the best news source in the near future. It already shows quite some progress.

A clean, simple, no nonsense news site.

Woah! I am adding this to my reads in the morning. Thanks for the link!

kinda late, but no problem! I forget where I found out about it.

WOW!

Local free newspapers, local broadcast news on TV at the laundromat, newspaper headlines at standa and drug stores, and Reddit.

I kinda gave up.

The Economist is excellent.

I'm paying for their Espresso app and to me it's worth it. A way to keep tabs without being bombarded with a ton of unrelated news articles.

Reuters and BBC for day-to-day.

Local city newspaper (online).

Google news sorted by topics.

Reddit.
