Subject: RE: BS: American News Bulletins
You can only listen to the same story hashed and rehashed so often. The trick with places like MSNBC is to drop in for a few minutes midday to see what's up then listen to one of the evening programs to get the updates and interviews. CNN tends to have a broader range of actual news than the deep dives MSNBC takes on mostly liberal/progressive oriented stories. For a while there CNN shed a lot of its news readers and hosts as a pro-Trump guy ran the place for a few months. He is now gone.
National Public Radio and the PBS Newshour are where I get most of my news.
Fox News, despite the name, isn't news. Nor is OAN, Newsmax, etc. They don't even try to make it sound like what is actually happening on the ground. The major television networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) still tend to have rational news reports, but I look to their local affiliate channels and that for mostly for local news.
American newspapers have print/web content but they have a lot of video stories and podcasts now. There is no shortage of news outlets in the US.
