24in60.com: The last 24 hours in 60-second, unbiased news bites.
- judofyr 15y agoDefinitely needs sources! I'd love to read more about the cases (and do the biasing myself).
- jsavimbi 15y agoYeah, I too am interested in finding out the source of the material along with the claim of it being unbiased. I'm pretty sure that reporting news without bias is impossible.

- omniscient 15y agoaka thedailybeast without pictures.
- msy 15y agoSo rephrased, unsourced content edited anonymously? No thanks.
- xnerdr 15y agoLooks like a blogger figured out the Google news alerts "email me" feature.
- monochromatic 15y ago> unbiased Ain't so such thing.
- tvon 15y agoExactly, you can't even decide what to report without imposing some level of bias.
- abofh 15y ago"Much political fanfare was on display at a congressional Finance Committee".... That would be political bias sir, please either don't editorialize, don't publish, or don't claim unbiased.
- bingaman 15y agoThe feed isn't even full text.
- meadhikari 15y agoFor me, this fact was more disappointing than the citation.
- joshklein 15y agoThe bias in (the non-opinion portions of) major papers like the NYT and WSJ is in what they choose to cover, their depth of coverage, their subtle manipulation of headlines to set the tone of their information, and so on. There is no such thing as selecting what news to report without inherently imbuing it with your bias as to what news is worth knowing.
- jschuur 15y agoCould use some topic tags to cross-reference the material covered, so you can see a particular topic evolve over time. Plus the site is just too anonymous. Perhaps that's on purpose, to underscore the 'unbiased' angle, but it's a little eerie not seeing any name on it.
- finiteloop 15y agoThe best version of this concept is The Week magazine in my opinion (see http://theweek.com/ http://theweek.com/, though I the print version is really higher quality than the site). It includes all the major stories of the week with references and then covers all the columnists and editorials from both sides of the aisle and from around the world. For me, it is the perfect balance of brevity and comprehensiveness without feeling superficial. AFAIK, it started in the UK and was "ported" to a US edition a few of years ago. It is pretty easy to read in an hour or so and fills in all the gaps I missed from my sporadic news reading the previous week.
