4. The Christian Science Monitor has been a reputable newspaper for decades.
I also like the BBS World News service. When I'm in Europe, I cling to the International Herald Tribune.

5. Used to just be able to watch the news or read the paper.
They are all bought up and compromised, to varying degrees.
Some highlights- when the largest protest march in the history of the world feb 2003 against the war had millions of people in the street all over the world, our paper put a tiny pic of jesse jackson in the bottom corner of the paper with the headline indicating a few loose screws were protesting in washington again. It's what they fail to cover as much as what and how they cover for bush.
I miss American journalism.
