The BBC. Reuters. CSPAN (although I can't remember if it's actually a news aggregator).

Yeah right. BBC is state-sponsored propaganda, whether you like what they say or not. They deserve the exaxt same trust that RT and PBS deserve.

CSPAN is good when it is just footage without commentary and they fit the bill but have very limited coverage. I don't think you can have CSPAN be your primary source of news.

Of course he doesn't--that's Obama's line.

Well, a lot of things start with the media reporting them, but then they do pick up from there and they are officially looked into.

So let's see how it develops from here.

Because the five million illegal voters thing hasn't picked off yet. But I assume those five million are going to be found, right?

And what about the 400 pound guy sitting on his bed? Oh right, Trump finally admitted that it wasn't so.

Yet I don't think that the Sessions thing won't go anywere. After all, just as someone pointed out here, you had a similar case of the DCI Clapper doing the same thing, lying under oath, and nothing happened.

What a minor thing to try and weasel-word around. What lie did Sessions tell under oath?

No one in the public knows how the DNC and Podesta emails were obtained. No one knows except those with inside information. It could've been Putin, could've been Seth Rich, could've been a 400 pound hacker known as 4chan, could've been the GOP, could've been you, could've been me.

A better example is AG Holderp. He lied to congress; he was found in contempt of congress; Obama's DOJ did not pursue the charges. Poof! No media frenzy--no one held accountable--Obama dindu nuffin.

I've never heard an American bad mouth the BBC before. I don't often get my news from them, but they are at least from a distance and have a venerable reputation. What is the problem with Reuters?

As for PBS, they cover such a huge range that it's impossible to say they're biased. Biased about what? Astronomy? Anthropology? Much of what they do is present fact or straight reporting. Unless you want to take down Big Bird or the lovable aardvark. I'd call them biased but I'm not about to crush children's dreams of a warm and loving world.

Any "news" outfit run by the state is, by definition, shit.

Reuters is definitely suspect though I still read their newsfeed. BBC was a GoTo source until Trump; now they're beating the same anti-Trump drum.

I'm not threatened by Trump. He seems normal to me while politicians seem sleazy. Talk to anybody long enough & they get a little Out There.
