    Reuters, generally, will not censor truthful information. Some stuff won’t get picked up, but they make their money from subscriptions to financially relevant news and analysis, rather than shady payments for political influence. I honestly put them a step above AP most of the time, because money talks in geopolitics.

      I 100% agree. 8 times out of 10 their articles are just the facts. Those 2 that aren’t though, yikes. Also, their headlines blow pretty hard sometimes too. The Guardian is probably 6 times out of 10 and those are the 2 of the 3 best IMO.

      The editor of the AP makes the AP suck about half the time. They skew their headlines and their descriptive language sometimes in the actual article. They also hide a lot of the real news from their front page.

      Propublica has been awesome for months now but are slightly going into the skewed headline territory. Mother Jones, even though when I checked on them last year they were ran by the best board, have been focusing on the puffed up articles. I’ve been sort of ignoring them lately.
