Viva hasn’t been a reliable news source since B-Rad underwent a handle-change operation. I do know a couple reliable youtubes if I need transmissions for East Hamlet, Long Island, though.
i use reddit as a content aggregator, and use google to independently verify and research everything that i care about or sounds like bullshit.
lately ive started watching conservative podcast videos like stephen crowder, and its fun to experience some of those ideas laid out in a much more reasonable and logical manner than they are portrayed in the media, and still be intensely frustrated by all the glossing over and borderline stupidity they engage in.
i have been listening to joe rogan lately but youve really gotta idependently verify everything that sounds like bullshit in the least when it comes from rogan. its not that he is dishonest or glossing over anything, its just such a nonstop stream of consciousness flow of ideas that its easy for things to get twisted or misrepresented.

The standard news sources
The standard news sources that I check throughout the day:
National Weather Service
BBC (good world news with slight liberal bent)
Guardian (more liberal, less stuffy version of BBC)
CNN (Clinton News Network)
Fox (Trump news)
Al Jazeera (a lot like the BBC but with special focus on Middle East issues)
RT (Putin News)
KATU (local news)
Oregonian (local and regional news)
VLZ (all the news that is unfit to print)
Also listen to NPR on the morning and evening commutes (in depth journalism with a very subtle elitist liberal bias)
I will also sometimes check out these other sources, especially for certain regional issues:
Al Arabiya (Saudi news)
Haaretz (left of center Israeli news)
Politico
Reuters (good old fashion non-biased journalism)
Twitter (especially for breaking news to get on the ground reports)

He routinely admits when his guests are smarter than him and often times acknowledges that he's a "meathead lifter who likes fighting".
