Are there any decent news sites anymore?

[Maxmars]

I gave up long ago.  I don't trust any of the sites out there.  If someone is paying for the content to be hosted and made public, someone is paying to have it presented a certain way.  Period (my take)

Maybe we can start a carrier-pidgeon network, lol.  I'll snoop around my small town and anything that goes down will get transmitted via bird to the next town, so forth and so on

I think 'trust' should be reserved for between people... not "products." 

News is now a "product."

Never mind that the universe of "news" is owned by handful of "buddies."
