If you want/need to get out of the US-centered news bubble, I highly recommend Al Jazeera, and BBC News.

I have found both to be much more reliable as fact presenters than most US news.

Plus, they tend to put TFG into perspective because their world doesn't revolve around him.

I'm open to other global news suggestions.

In my experience BBC News is interesting for presenting US events from the outside perspective, showing how US events are perceived overseas, but it's not actually reliable as it views things through a rather skewed lens.

For example BBC will often discuss US politics as if we have the same parliamentary system, and so will get things a bit wrong.

BBC also does this weird thing where they will read out listener comments as if they are fact when they're actually simply wrong.

So yeah, I've been listening to BBC consistently for years, and it's interesting, but not reliable at all.
