Hi everyone,

I am looking for a reliable European news service and would love to hear what you use and why.

I am based in Germany, so European sources that work well here are especially interesting to me. I am not looking for newsletters or RSS setups, just full news platforms or apps.

A few questions to guide your answers:

- Which European news service do you use most often?

- Is it free or paid, and if paid, do you feel the cost is justified?

- Do you use it mainly for European news, global coverage, or both?

- How would you describe its editorial approach (neutral, opinionated, investigative, etc)?

I am aiming to get a broader European perspective.
Practical comments about usability, quality of reporting, or specific strong areas are very welcome.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    Downvote for BBC - state propaganda/MI6 vehicle. And generally just shit journalism. Grauniad is pretty shite too - the crossword is ok.

      What do you read then? (To get a balanced information load, it is important to also read newspapers, that do not fit the bubble that one lives in. And to say that the BBC is propaganda and an MMI six vehicle, makes me think what you would do if the BBC wouldn’t be available in the UK. I fear for the quality of the newspapers that will be left over then.).
