Where can you find credible, unbiased news coverage? I've started watching foreign news coverage of the US. It seems better, but I can't yet tell how much; all

  There's no such thing as unbiased news coverage. Any news outlet has more stories to report than they have capacity to report. They must exhibit some bias to control for what they show. (Or, alternatively, I guess they could just randomly select news stories, but I don't think that'd be very compelling.)

    Or they could only write about things they have thoroughly researched, not try to write about every event that happens, many of which they are just regurgitating from another source without any additional fact-checking or analysis anyway.

      Research, and presenting context for the news item, always means interpretation, and that leads to accusation of bias.

      Ok, how do you select the things to research without bias?

  what i try to do is read the story from two sources that hate each other and try to take an average. Stay away from opinion and "analysis" pieces period.
