Some people on here have told me they hate following the news. It makes them cynical and depressed because there is so much suffering all over the world. Moreover they are annoyed by the toxic culture war.
Personally I still really like following the news. I read a lot of newspaper/news megazine articles. I read a lot from leftwing and right wing media. But usually more leftwing media due to the fact that I am a lefty and there are more leftwing media outlets in my country.
I think probably almost noone will know any of the German media outlets which I follow but the magazine I read the most is "Der Spiegel."
Another main source I get information from is Youtube. I think the mainstream media preach down on Youtube a lot. Sometimes their arguments are valid but on the other hand I think they critize it because they see their power in danger. There is a lot of high quality content on Youtube. Calling them all conspiracy theorists is treacherous in my opinion. When I follow the US news I think the TV broadcast stations are horrible. They make either advertisement for the Democrats or the Republicans.
The newspaper papers make a better job someone told me. But I cannot really judge that. I don't follow them enough in the US.
I also watch news channels funded by public broadcasting. They do a good job in my opinion.
