Re: where to get info??

So after my rant today, I read somewhere in a magazine about the Huffington Post which is the liberal's answer to the Drudge Report. Anyway, so I thought I would check it out and one of the posts today from Adam McKay mentioned suggestions about how to get legit info; here is an excerpt:

Now my first question concerned the lack of any press that can be trusted by a clear majority of Americans. We used to have Cronkite and the NY Times as touchstones but due to assaults from the corporate owned networks we no longer have a Cronkite. And the NY Times suffers the misfortune -- for most of America -- of having "New York" in it's title which for someone in South Carolina might as well be called the "Devil Town Times."

Many recommended surveying different media outlets and sources and drawing my own conclusions. This is what I've done for years and I think that would qualify as close as you can get to a correct answer. I personally like The New Yorker. Sy Hersh is the last of the real reporters with inscrutable sources and a courageous nose for the truth. I also think a stew of CNN, ABC and a dash of Newsweek ain’t bad. For dessert I like Bill Moyers and some Howard Stern. But that's not for everyone.

Alas, I am beginning to think that this is the only solution. Just read a bunch of stuff and hope somewhere in the middle you find some semblance of truth. Oh well, for the whole post, see:
