Here’s a chart that I’ve found really helpful. Predictably, it’s drawn some criticism, but in my experience, it’s been very accurate.
Except they daily mail is well known as a heavily right leaning paper for years. So I wouldn’t take that images accuracy to heart
NPR
PBS
AP
Reuters
BBC
The Guardian
DW news (dw.com) is pretty good and not too sensational. They’re like German PBS with a whole English side of the site.
Thanks for dw.com. It looks like a keeper.
The Economist. Despite the insufferable name, it’s really quite good. It’s one of the only traditional publications that I actively pay for and read weekly.
Same here. Outside of if their Fuck Russia coverage (which isn’t unearned) or the viewpoint of a noble wanting to actually understand what is going on with the masses, it is pretty good.
Yeah, agreed, it’s pretty good.
BBC News. They do a fairly good job of being impartial since both main party voters here in the UK hate it and accuse it of being biased to the opposition!
Isn’t it populated in the highest echelons by Tories who ensure the government is given an easy ride?
No it’s full of labour lovers!
I get a weekly email from Ground.News and it’s been pretty interesting to see the distribution of sources covering various stories. I’ve never personally mused on the leanings of various sources but it passes the eye test I think, and it helps give a good aggregation of perspectives on a story.
I don’t really read news in English anymore, but when I did, I subscribed to the economist. I found most other news sites were too biased and ignored most of the world.
https://ground.news/ is a pretty good resource. It’s a news aggregate that also reveals the source’s/writer’s political biases as a percentage of left or right. Also it’s factuality versus editorialization, and who owns the outlet.
Definitely one of the better ones out there.

What country do you live in?
USA
Oh sorry, there I have no idea unfortunately but I‘d go with /u/wilberfan‘s comment
Could also be interesting to go with TheGuardian UK. Quite fascinating to see an “outside” view of events incountry.
I’m fortunate to live in an area with good local independent news sources like Berkeleyside.
National & international are a big mess. Better to look at lots of different sources. If the Wall Street Journal, Al-Jazeera, and The Grauniad all talk about an event, it probably happened.
NYT. But of course, as with any source, remain critical and check for retractions/corrections.
Ground.news They label bias both left, right, ans center. Blindspots, which are things that are only bring shown to one side of the political spectrum. Not sure how effective they are outside the US, tho.
