I'm usually trusting Reuters or AP news
Though I've heard of ground.news and have been thinking about subscribing, DAE have experience with them? Are they as unbiased as they claim?
Reuters usually has half decent articles, but they're owned by billionaires out of Canada. This look into them was done late last year: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174374
AP has some sketch board members as shown here: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12174861
It helps that their business model doesn't rely primarily on ads or user tracking, and instead relies on subscriptions from other news businesses. This obviously isn't perfect as they do serve some ads, and it requires those other businesses to exist and be profitable, but it's a helpful layer of insulation.
