What newspaper are you paying for these days?

I sub to Apple News+. Give a good mix of papers and magazines, and a lot of long form articles are broken out and highlighted in their own features.

It's all bad. The only things even remotely reliable in my experience are SEC filings and market data. Everything else is mostly made up or lies.

what about The Economist? Is anybody subscribing it? I’m considering buying the paper subscription.

I pay for my local news. I need the news local and close to be to stay around. I read it once in a while, but I think it's ridiculous when one can't even get local news.

I get most of my news from NPR or BBC. I don't subscribe to either but I used to subscribe to Economist. It's still good but the writing style and tone is cloying.

I've been considering Financial Times to replace it.

None.

WSJ, NYT, and Apple News+

None of the general news sources are worth paying for. "Gell-Mann Amnesia" applies broadly. They depict a perpetual drama. Each focuses from a different perspective, at the same dramatis personae. It's set up this way so viewers can follow, and be entertained. They know the plot threads, the characters, themes, the possible twists to watch for. This is similar to any TV series or cinematic universe. (e.g. Superheros, Tolkien-style fantasy etc)

The themes change over time, but in a gradual, controlled manner. And (nearly) all perspectives point at the latest.

Specialist news sources are sometimes high quality. For example: Quanta magazine, which articles we see frequently here. Ground news is an aggregator that tries to balance out the Left/Right bias of news outlets, but I think this misses the point.

Philadelphia Inquirer, it's owned by a foundation, not a billionaire. I mostly use it for access to daily comic strips.

Colorado Sun, it's a non-profit. I think it was started by refugees from the Rocky Mountain News, after that failed. Mostly general Colorado news, so it's fairly local in scope for these modern times.

About a year ago I still had a few newspapers that I trusted. Reuters, National Post, CTV, financial times, etc.

Today, each one of those have fell. They each provided examples of bias exceeding my threshold. There was a shocking slip of quality in the last 2 years at all of these.

I trust none of them anymore. Journalism has fallen to their own BS.

None. I find the quality and mostly left wing bias in the current state unacceptable. Too little neutral reporting and way too much subtle opinion making on the current thing.
