The media landscape has changed significantly. The Late Show is reportedly being ended after 33 years. CBS News 60 Minutes is in turmoil after major correspondent departures. AI-generated news content is widespread across smaller outlets. Curious where people here are actually getting news they trust in 2026, and what their process is for verifying things that seem important

BBC World Service for international news. Not perfect but there is still a serious editorial layer there that most alternatives have hollowed out

My process is to see a headline somewhere, then search for the same story from three different outlets before I decide what I think happened

The newsletter model has done well. Journalists who left broken institutions and write directly for subscribers have produced some of the best work of the last two years

Reuters and AP wire for straight facts. Anything that is genuinely analysis or opinion I try to read multiple perspectives before I form a view

The 60 Minutes situation is a symptom of something real. Long-form investigative journalism is expensive and no one has worked out a stable commercial model for it

Honestly I trust almost nothing on first contact now. Everything goes through a basic plausibility check and a search for primary sources before I accept it as real
