Re: Correlation or Causation

I did not forget others, but did not think it worth trying to be exhaustive, so chose some that often, but quite inaccurately in my opinion, put forward as relatively unbiased, and from which I choose to acquire the majority of my news input. While sometimes annoyingly biased, they usually cover the facts reasonably well if you read articles completely and disregard the slant. In technical matters it is somewhere between very useful and essential also to have some independent subject knowledge.

I would rank the others suggested, from most useful to least, CBS or ABC, then Fox, CNN, and (MS)NBC. In the past I listened to a fair amount of short wave radio and thought BBC, along with VoA and Deutche Welle English services, to be relatively complete and accurate, and much less biased than others.
