I always struggle with what sources I should be reading for news (particularly political news). I don’t want to read only sources that I agree with, but I also struggle finding news sources that aren’t sensationalist and put forward varied view points. Here are a few of the places I frequent (criticism of these sources or other recommendations are welcome.) I don’t think my political news sources are well varied so any recommendations there would be great as well.

  • hackernews
  • arstechnica
  • the economist
  • axios
  • MIT News
  • Wired
  • @CanadaPlus

    BBC for international news, CBC for national news and Nature for science news. That gets me the basic discussion, I have to go to niche communities devoted to a specific issue if I want the real story about things.
