Do you even bother with most mainstream news channels/sites?

Where do you guys usually get your news? I mostly get news from whatever I follow on facebook and twitter. But I rarely check those out these days anymore. What channels and news sites would you guys recommend checking out? Mainstream news channels don't show all the news out there, only what they think would be best to talk about.

I used to watch the basic cable news networks, like cnn and fox. I didn't really affiliate with either of them like some people seem to do. Like it seems that cnn is for liberals and democrats and fox news is republicans. But I don't really care about that, I just want to hear about the damn news without their opinions and thoughts. It's a lot worse on social media, because everyone has to comment. And it never goes well. But, I often have a good laugh at what people are saying in the comments.

I'm the same mostly. Whatever comes across the timeline or feed on facebook, twitter or youtube. But for about a decade now I've followed international news like BBC News and World Tribune because I feel like they wouldn't be beholden to any American agenda so they would report the story relatively objectively and without bias.
