I subscribed at one of their cheap rates last year and didn't find much in it unique from other sources I'm already subscribed to.

I subscribed at one of their cheap rates last year and didn't find much in it unique from other sources I'm already subscribed to.
- jmckib 5y agoWhat other sources are you already subscribed to? I'm always looking for recommendations.
- gxqoz 5y agoLots of stuff. For "pure news" New York Times, Seattle Times, Bloomberg Businessweek, The Economist, Wall Street Journal, The Guardian. Lots of somewhat more general interest subscriptions also have news angles like Slate Plus, The New Yorker, New York Review of Books, London Review of Books, Harpers, Literary Review, ProPublica, New York Magazine, some Substacks. I realize this is a lot (and is only a partial list) but pretty much all of these listed ones have various interesting pieces I wasn't finding anywhere else. Whereas WP felt very "cable news" to me, just giving article after article on the latest stuff happening at the White House. I can get that elsewhere and am already not interested in most cases.
