Title; I've been asked by a progressive lib I know for some "neutral" sources on the news. Obviously no such thing exists, but what can I throw his way that won't make him balk? Ideally stuff with a minimum of problematic shit that needs to be explained away, we don't have a long-standing or ongoing relationship so I would prefer it to stand on its own.
ETA: Thanks for the help everyone, I sent him a nice-sized list to peruse, so here's hopin' those seeds sprout.
I don't know if you could find an actual news source that would fit his definition of neutrality, but the Citations Needed podcast might be a decent intro to critiquing the news and that whole idea, and it's dry and straightforward enough to maybe lure in a lib.
This is a great suggestion, thank you. :) I'm not sure how he feels on podcasts but it's going on the list regardless.
their parent org, FAIR, publishes good critiques of specific news narratives, and i'm surprised they don't get more links
Another excellent suggestion that totally fled my brain when he asked. Also going on the list, thank you. :soviet-heart:
