The image above is a quote from Yuval Noah Harari’s Homo Deus. In today’s world of fast-paced information overload, it is increasingly difficult to distinguish from reliable to misleading news.
I found the sites below helpful to decipher reliable sources. In our current polarized society, you may want to consult multiple sources from different perspectives.

When I examined my news sources, I realized that I needed to trim my US news sources, read more local news, and follow more international news organizations. I have cut out major news sources such as The New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, Fox, etc. For international news, I thought a good start was to find reputable news sources from each continent.
Below are the latest news sources I am beginning to use. For some sites, you may need to use a translation site such as Google Translate. Please let me know if you recommend others.
