Not really. Just whatever gets posted on Lemmy.
post
Only passively, drip-fed via my Lemmy feed, YT subscriptions (none of which are news-specific channels), work emails, or word-of-mouth followed by a web search if it interests me.
Other than passively through social media (Lemmy) and hearing people talk about stuff, I listen to the local public radio that syndicates NPR pretty much every day. I've also got some sites bookmarked, mostly AP and then local stuff, but I don't look at them every day.
There's some stuff that shows up in my YouTube that I'll watch regularly, mostly Channel 5. Matt Bernstein shows up a lot, but it's usually celebrity or social media gossip with a political element rather than news.
I wouldn't say that any of these are especially useful, but it's enough that when I hear somebody talking about something that's going on, I've usually already heard about it.
And it's not a news source, but there's an infrequent indie talkshow called "Going Down with Ella Yurman" that I quite like, and I feel would probably be well-regarded among the Lemmy crowd.
I stopped following all but one.
Government run news agency doesn't try to trigger me or snare a one more click, but I'm still only reading the RSS feed.
Other than that my only news outlet is Lemmy.
- Democracy Now!
- Breakthrough News
- Monthly Review
- Thruthout
I have rss feeds setup for a bunch of local and international news sources, and a couple entertainment feeds. I know all the sources have bias so I like to see what propaganda and which stories they choose to report on and how they report it differently across different sources.
I don't.
I sporadically glimpse and skim through the news. I don't let the news revolve around me or I to revolve around it.
I would rather be minimally informed than majorly misinformed.
I look at The Guardian, ProPublica and Associated Press to see if the world is ending yet then I read tech and science articles.
