What are you using for a news app?
I have not watched the news in many many years. I used to rely on Drudge and here. Drudge went to the crapper and that got deleted and went to Fox News. Well after this week Fox has officially gotten deleted.
I still have you all but what app do I turn to now for a decent quick peek of just news?

I do something a bit different. I use an app and website called Feedly.

I select the RSS feed that I want to review from various websites and blogs. The article headlines are displayed and I click to see a short abstract, a link to the main site or sometimes the full article sans ads.

It's not perfect, but it allows me to quickly scan through stuff I've curated myself.

Unfortunately, some sites have RSS feeds, but they do not create sub-sets of their RSS feeds. As an example, I can get the Fox News RSS feed, but I can not narrow the results to Fox News Politics.

Evil exists. You can not negotiate with, bribe or placate evil. You're not going to be able to have it sit down with Dr. Phil for an anger management session either.

I too would be interested in a reporting app that doesn't simply repeat lies.

I'm just glad to see others are having the same problem I have. I've hated, yes hated the media for some time now. They're liarss, plain and simple. All the national media are leftists and so biased I just refuse to watch their shit.

One of the last straws was them cutting away from the Presidents news conference because some God like creature in their leftist culture decided the President's views weren't worth watching and substituted his own views and analysis of what we should be watching. I presume because he's much better informed than our President. Its OK I guess, but then I'm confused at what freedom of the press includes. I don't think he should be allowed to use our airwaves to spout his propaganda. Or to cut off the President mid speech. He's putting himself on the same level as our elected officials. The person who made that decision should be banned from the publics airwaves. At some point it becomes a problem. That was along time ago. The FCC needs to grow some balls and ban them from transmitting. Simple truth, they are the media. They have no business deciding the truth or worthiness of news.

This is the crap revolutions are made from. Maybe it should not be criminal for shooting anyone associated with national or local media. They would soon be reduced in numbers to the point where they wouldn't take it upon themselves to decide what their betters hear.

Do we have a right to hear what our President says, or do they have the "right" to edit to better fit their views? Rapidly realizing they're just liars. The same as their supporters who pay them to advertise. Except truth isn't required as it currently stands.

So why can't we start shooting the bastards?

I look in on these.

As an aside the only reason I have the Daily Mail included is to see what that asshat Piers Morgan and the leftists are bloviating about.

I have heard that European news will tell the news about us not slanted opinions. Does anyone have a good site?

DW.com Berlin Germany in English.

If you understand German, there are a dozen news web sites in Germany.

Also, the BBC from England.

I surf the net a lot, of foreign news websites.

You do get news about the USA, but I have found 75% of the articles pertaining to President Trump are anti-Trump in nature. Like so called friends, they only like the Presidents and leaders that give them money or concessions. That is why most leDers, with exception of Israel, say it is very difficult to deal or negotiate with President Trump.

He won't give in to them.

I wish I could post a source of un-biased Trump and USA news. They love to crucify this country based on our treatment of blacks, protestors and the gay communities.

Sunset_Va,

I tend to agree and posted that site based on some brief exposure after sampling many others. Haven't tuned in to them in some time. I now regret citing them.
