  NewAtlas kinda looks like a PR reposter at a glance, but they are actually a great site. They are proper journalists with a soul, who reach out to the sources, test things, hunt down leads, and generally write stuff like its not written by a LLM. What I am saying is that I don't feel bad about "skipping" the original source like most soulless cloners you see on the written internet these days.

    1. No proper citing. 2. The site looks like a hot mess because of their use of Taboola links.
    • brucethemoose2 3y ago
      Its just minor Google banner ads for me and a Taboola bar at the very bottom. That's about as good as it gets these days, even on sites like APNews.

        Yes, the Taboola hot mess is also on CNN. How did this awful clickbait platform become so ubiquitous even on sites where you expect a level of content scrutiny.
        • brucethemoose2 3y ago
          Written online journalism has been on the decline for like a decade because of video, social media, the ad/spam arms race, SEO exploitation and such. They have to use Taboola to pay the bills, they have no other choice.

            Any personal favorites for news and current events?
            • brucethemoose2 3y ago
              I read Axios pretty regularly because the site is exceptionally clean. Other than that, I tend to stick to niche sites.

      I cannot comprehend how people are using web in 2023 without ad-blocking.
