Ignoring blogs and uncorroborated speculative sources, which news organizations do you place your faith in, broadly speaking. It's a mixture of UK / US and Print and TV. Apologies to those excluded by geography.
Pick up to five.

Re: Trusted News Sources
You missed Channel 4 News.
I normally watch BBC then turn over to watch Channel 4, between the 2 there can be some interesting differences.

True. Sorry. There have already been votes, so I won't add it. I know what you mean about differences. What I find funny about Channel Four News is that John Simpson does the big stories and then the second division stories are done from a smaller desk by someone else. Real division of labour stuff.

Watching the London leaders and their proxies unite against a simple democratic measure tells me all I need to know about the UK in any form. Their interests are not Scotland's interests.

I do as Witchypoo does and it's quite illuminating.
Nonsense to the aggressiveness, I've seen more aggression on the my little pony message board......I mean I was told.

New York Times, BBC.
I don't don't look at any TV news unless it's on in the barbershop or somewhere.

Same all around, but curse the NYT website for trying to make money from their hard work and journalistic integrity! I haven't looked at it since they went pay and I miss it something fierce.
Let U be the set of all united sets, K be the set of the kids and D be the set of things divided.
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

There's a way to defeat the NYT "paywall" in the article Jude links to.
