    A print newspaper? Edit: I'm not being sarcastic. Even if you read the online version of a print paper, you're getting articles that weren't optimized for clicks.

      The Daily Mail is an example of a newspaper that has a very different online offering to the print version.

      Lest people think The Christian Science Monitor is a religiously biased pseudoscience outlet, it isn't. In fact it is one of the best news sources available internationally if you are looking for a fact-based news outlet with excellent reporting and minimal bias.

        Also, Christian Science is not the same thing as Scientology.

    The Financial Times largely avoids editorializing its news sections, and employs real journalists (maybe because executives need accurate information and are willing and able to pay for it). Notice how even big stories often appear significantly later on the FT website compared to other outlets, but when they do appear they've generally got the facts straight. Their subscription fees are substantial, but if we don't want everything reduced to ad-based sensationalism we're going to need to pay actual money.
