I'm linking to their US tag, because I like it, and it's somewhat buried on their website. The US is not their core area of coverage, so it does a nice job of filtering out coverage the latest media circus. Their reporting is even-handed, and their biggest recurring bias is elevating the importance of US-South American trade deals (which, like, yeah, understandable).
Their world coverage is also good. Doesn't have the same layer-of-removal that the US coverage does though.
you don't need news updates 
i mean you can't influence 99% shit you read in big news, aside from local stuff and groups so 
Agreed somewhat. I'd rather not know all the BS that's happening. It's less about influencing and more about staying informed in case smth like the IDF getting cooked happens 
. Big events and leftist perspective on them.
