I can't claim to be a regular reader of the Washington Post, but I certainly think it's a superior newspaper to the Washington Times - not for its liberal slant, but just because of its reputation for strong investigation and quality reporting. Kind of sad indeed that Scalia should find it too "shrilly" liberal, although I dare say someone of his calibre won't much suffer from the lack of extra perspective. Lesser thinkers will, though.
View original postAs for me, I get my news from the NYT, WSJ, Economist, and Spiegel. Which I think (I hope) gives a good enough breadth of subjective opinion.

I should think so. I mostly just read the Economist and a Belgian newspaper (for national news), and occasional things here and there. To be sure even the Economist has its own outlook on things, but not really of the kind that requires much balancing, I think, and their international scope helps to see things in perspective and not get so hung up on a narrow set of topics.

The Economist remains my favorite source of news journalism by far. Especially when I read it online and browse the comments on certain news stories. I'm always entertained.

The Daily Show and Jon Stewart are part of the problem, and it's past time his fans realized it. - 12/10/2013 06:00:42 PM 365 Views
Interestingly enough there was a good NYT article about this problem. - 12/10/2013 09:04:51 PM 473 Views
