> The media landscape is beyond broken in this country.

It has been for a while. Most of the major "news" media organizations are anything but news. That people actually believe what they hear, and then act upon this ... often ... misinformation ... is horrifying. That they have ardent supporters who insist that X really is news while Y is not ... well ... no.

If you want news in the US about the US, listen to BBC America. It is the least biased, narrative embracing, propaganda pushing, site around. There may be others that are workable as news sites. But none from the US.
