MODERATORS
NPR mostly
I read mostly tech news these days.
Ars Technica, anyone?
Ars Technica
They have been great for a long time.
The comments section there has some serious subject matter experts on a wide range of technology.
I just use hacker news for tech stuff. If an article on there is BS, you can be sure that someone will call that out in the comments after about 5 minutes. And if not, there's almost always a good discussion with very few insults.
Ground News
This is the one I like. It not only gives you Left, Center or Right leaning articles, it also tells you how factual the new source that you're looking at is
Only in the paid version.
That said, simply comparing the headline across sources will tell you an awful lot about how factual they are.
There are a few sites that do the same thing but I find All Sides to be a very quick way to know how biased a news topic is and what neutral really is.
Allsides is the one I usually use, not by choice it's the first resualt when I search for news bias chart. By news topic, you mean the news source or the topic?
I mean topic as in what happened.
I just took a quick look at All Sides. How does it compare to Media Bias/Fact Check? I don't know how to "fact check" either one of these sources but that's what I have to do so.
Thanks for sharing All Sides, it is new to me.
I mostly get my news from memes these days.

Why not just go to sources that don't have a real leaning? OK, they are hard to find, but they still do exist. Try the BBC for an English-speaking source, or ARD and ZDF in German.

Fediverse comments: I sort them out in my mind to distinguish truth from rubbish schizophrenics
CBC is pretty good at covering most topics that are relevant to me.
