No such thing. You either get the watered down TV style news or you get the extreme national enquiror version. You might find some middle ground occasionaly, but you will never really know if it is bullshit or just partly bullshit. - Thu, 30 Oct 2003 2:07pm

Well, I know The Observer http://observer.guardian.co.uk/ out of the UK isn't too bad and Gregory Plast http://www.gregpalast.com/ has some good/interesting things to say.

Maybe I shouldn't have asked about news and should have asked for objective information and views. - Thu, 30 Oct 2003 2:54pm

My personal favorite is CNN. I love the Comedy News Network. I like to see what they say of events and then I go and check out canada.com and compare. Sometimes there are huge differences in the stories. - Thu, 30 Oct 2003 4:17pm
