Inspired by the top 50 news websites in the US list by The Press Gazette.

NYT has a paywall. Surprised it's that popular when people generally won't pay for news

    Americans willingly fund NPR and PBS.

    To be fair, I don’t really think of NPR or PBS as print media, so I don’t really seek out their websites, unless I want to listen to the radio while away from an actual radio.

    Btw, this isn't considering how they get there. Google and iOS both push some of these sources on their newsfeed apps (and probably first hits when you Google search something).

    Not to say the average person isn't brainwashed, just that the oligarchy feeds its own.

    The full list really isn't as bad as I expected.

    BBC is up there, apnews, the guardian.

    As another comment has said, NPR is audio content, and nearly all of their podcasts are available through podcast apps directly. And PBS isn't a news site, so of course it doesn't show up.

    Also worth remembering that CNN was pretty widely considered to be balanced until around a decade ago. I'm sure there's a bunch of older people still operating from that.
