Inspired by the top 50 news websites in the US list by The Press Gazette.
.
The full list really isn’t as bad as I expected.
BBC is up there, apnews, the guardian.
As another comment has said, NPR is audio content, and nearly all of their podcasts are available through podcast apps directly. And PBS isn’t a news site, so of course it doesn’t show up.
Also worth remembering that CNN was pretty widely considered to be balanced until around a decade ago. I’m sure there’s a bunch of older people still operating from that.
Btw, this isn’t considering how they get there. Google and iOS both push some of these sources on their newsfeed apps (and probably first hits when you Google search something).
Not to say the average person isn’t brainwashed, just that the oligarchy feeds its own.
I also tune in to failed to load media
To be fair, I don’t really think of NPR or PBS as print media, so I don’t really seek out their websites, unless I want to listen to the radio while away from an actual radio.
Yep. NPR is often on while I’m in the car, but I’ve never gone seeking it out online except for specific shows (in podcast form) which do not necessitate going directly to their site. I think its pretty typical for people to interact with it purely as news/entertainment radio.
I personally watch he hell out of PBS shows and have since I was a kid. (Space Time on YouTube is probably at the top of my list now.) My first thought about PBS was, “PBS has a web site?”.
Space Time is one of the greatest YouTube channels ever
nytimes.com, the gaming website? 🙃
Hey now, they have satirical news too.
Wait, I’ve been informed it’s not satirical. Wtf?
