It’s more opinion and analysis, but I watch David Pakman a lot on YouTube. Really smart guy, we share a lot of the same ideas and priorities politically/socially, he has expertise in economics and does a great job explaining the reality of the economy vs common perception/disinformation, and he kind of just tells things like they are, whether his audience will like it or not. He’s also EXCELLENT at just systematically dismantling most right wing arguments.

And he does bring a touch of smugness, which I don’t hate😂 Like at the end of every week he reads tweets and emails and comments to him, and he always very dryly but very sharply mocks the ROUTINE grammatical/spelling errors in them.

“ @Trump4Life writes to me: ‘David your [sic] horrible…’ “ and he’ll stop mid-sentence and say “yes, MY horrible.” 😂😂😂

Or he reads Trump’s Tweets as he types them, with all their errors. “Radical left lower-case-m marxists lower-case-d democrats are capital-D Destroying the capital-C Country, with a wide capital-O Open boarder mis-spelled, wrong ‘border’, letting in capital-M Murderers and capital-R Rapists into our capital-N Nation…”😂😂😂

“This person writes to me: ‘Ass hoe vote Trump”……COULD NOT possibly respond to that.” Lmfao, love the way he dunks on them.

I usually go to him for analysis, and then when I hear of shit happening, I check the Big 3: CNN, MSNBC, and FoxNews on their websites. It’s usually very interesting to see the difference in perspective, and also the difference in where the headline is. Stuff at the top of CNN has been BURIED on Fox before, haha.

I have a mix between youtube and articles most of the time I just hear about things from youtube but when I wanna dig deeper into something or verify it I make sure to look it up and see who's written about it etc. But honestly I don't follow news that closely I feel like life is better when you just live your life instead of getting emotional about politics. When I have to vote about issues in my own country I do inform myself but that's because I feel like I have a duty to be informed when I cast my vote. But they usually do a good job to explain what the whole thing is about and both sides get to argue their case.

I usually end up getting it through social media as I don’t actively look for it. If I do choose to look, I prefer either just reading the headline notifications of American Press articles on their app or just watching Phil Defranco on Youtube just because I can appreciate how he makes a point to give his opinion and state that it is his opinion after delivering the checked facts around something.

I watch danish news almost daily on Tv2, either the morning or evening news, depending on my day, I also get updates from DR which is a danish radio/TV/news outlet. Then I get my Icelandic news online.

I find podcasts to be a fantastic medium for staying updated. They allow me to multitask while absorbing new insights. For news, I enjoy NPR's podcasts; they provide in-depth coverage and a diverse range of topics. Social media is also a quick way to get updates, but I prefer the depth and analysis provided by podcast discussions. 🎧📻

I get my news from infowars and tim pool because the lame stream media lies about Donald trump screw institutionalized media I just go to tim pool and other conspiracy theorist because CNN is lying about Donald trump saying that he lost an election no he is perfect in every single way and can do no wrong and he will be my benevolent leader like Kim Jung Un.

Lmfao just kidding. I have taking a break from the news because it's kind of crazy, so I am not really getting my news from anything at moment.

Apple1996 · Answer

I try to avoid the news. It's to much stress. If it's something important I'll see articles online or people taking about it so I learn about it that way

goaded · Answer

I chose TV, because that's the closest to traditional, respectable, media. I access the BBC and various newspapers, usually through their web pages, rather than TV.
