I’m german and have been listening to it to get the american perspective on world events. They seem to be rather neutral and don’t make a spectacle of things like CNN or abc does which helps me with focusing on the facts. They currently are my favourite american news source. Yet I rarely see them referenced. What do you guys think about them? What’s their vibe in your opinion?
PBS is about all I can stand. no commercials. expect something bad will happen to it. There is always the off channel.
As far as “mainstream” broadcasters NPR/PBS are about as good as you’re going to get in the US. Unfortunately, they also tend to repeat narratives and in my opinion don’t go after those making bad faith arguments hard enough.
As an American, I rely on both NPR and PBS for my news. Far as I see it, others are entertainment.
PBS and NPR are both solid. Being public broadcasting, they’re often not funded super well, so it’s usually a slower trickle of content.
