minus-squareCaveman@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·2 days agoI stick to few sources that generally cover major without the doom and gloom. Generally YouTube channels are pretty good imo. TLDR News (UK, EU and Global) is a great series of channels for that. Caspian report on YouTube for some geopolitics/strategic outlook. Real life lore for couple of deep dives on non-current issues. Money and Macro for macro economic news. Just have a think for climate science and energy transition news. “Good news” is just nice feelgood news. Traditional media for closely following elections when they come out such as exit polls. For the Gaza issue I did break the cycle and check on Al Jazeera which is the best for middle East news.
