I don't trust any source fully; every one comes with some bias.
I use multiple sources, left, right, and allegedly "neutral", and then I make up my own mind.
I do a lot of shortwave listening, in addition to more mundane media.

I agree that the Washington Post should be in there. Fantastic investigative journalism especially with the piece of sub-human shit we have in the white house.

Since I am neither American, neither an anglophone, I rely on mostly francophone media sources.
From my local news outlet I watch Radio-Canada, I read Lapresse and Le Devoir. For more international news, I favor Le Monde which is a French publication.
As for my english news outlet, I tend to favor the Washington Post, the BBC, the Guardian and CBC, but I extand it to a lot of others outlet.
I would also like to mention that I frequently visit the World News, Clogosphere and Blogosphere section of RationalWiki.

Yea it was a choice from who knows how many different news outlets? One or two of somebody's favorites were bound to slip through the cracks... I could only create 20 options and there's no way I could reasonably predict which news sources people would've wanted to see up there. That's why there's an "other" option. Personally, I've never read the Washington Post because I use very little outside of Reuters and AP. I like fact reporting... nothing more (or very little more I suppose.)
