State run media is actually very good at solving the problems you find aggravating.
99% of useful news has nothing to do with the things you imagine state run news will be bad at informing you about. It is a world without sensational click bait. The 1% of the time some journalist goes missing, well thats what WeChat is for.
- Animats 10y agoThe Voice of America RSS feeds [1] are mostly clickbait-free. It's officially the position of the US Government, but has a long tradition of being neutral to the point of blandness. To try to drum up more interest, there are now some more tabloid-like feeds, such as "VOA Fast Five". The VOA's judgment on what's important is a lot better than most of the US media, where click-through rates seem to determine placement.
