Above all clarity. Facts and opinion clearly differentiated so that people can understand what the facts are, and then opinions can be formed compared and all of that.
I personally would really love to see the whole two sides to every story thing abolished. It's not productive, it's not even real.
Finally, and this will run against AD dollars of course, but I would love to see news focused right on the interests of everyday Americans, and presented from a labor, populist point of view. We basically don't do that in the US and there's a huge demand for it, and I would argue a need for it, given the outcome of media consolidation today.
I think doing those things will require a viewer supported and or subscription model such that it can be independent and actually present news in a way that serves the original purpose which is a check and balance against powerful interests.
