What sources do you use for news? (lemmy.ml)

I always struggle with what sources I should be reading for news (particularly political news). I don't want to read only sources that I agree with, but I also struggle finding news sources that aren't sensationalist and put forward varied view points. Here are a few of the places I frequent (criticism of these sources or other recommendations are welcome.) I don't think my political news sources are well varied so any recommendations there would be great as well.

hackernews
arstechnica
the economist
axios
MIT News
Wired

Also in podcast version for those interested. Honestly it's been noce sometimes to read those longform stuff. To often we just get news flashes and difficulty to have a broader point of view. I would recommend ready this sort of stuff especially when younger to get a better understanding of your own political opinions sometimes.
