My Top Five News Sources

 My Five Top News Sources 

1. 
   Associated Press News is my top news source due to the fact that it is a non-biased news source. AP News is rated 44.80 on the News Bias Spectrum, with the highest score going to USA Facts at 50.30 for reliability, and also with a bias score of 2.5 out of 42, meaning those stations are leaning just a little toward Democrats. In high school, my history and contemporary moral problems teachers always said that AP News was the most credible news source.

2. 
   My second source of news is Forbes, which is rated 40.73 on the reliability spectrum and has a bias score of -2.87. Forbes is a news source that shows the brutal reality of what's really happening in the world today. This is what many news sources don't do, so it's good to have a news source that gives you the full truth.

3. 
   The New York Times is a source that recently gained my trust by showing uncensored videos and interviews about what's happening in Minneapolis during the Trump Administration's second term. Letting people speak about what's happening and having the Analysis team review the video and what is said during an interview really helps their credibility. The NYT has a reliability score of 40.95 and a bias score of -8.03.

4. 
   The Verge is another source I look to because of its presence on platforms most people use
   every day, like TikTok and Instagram. You have to be careful when seeing news on social media, and you should always look into what you see rather than unquestioningly believe it. With a reliability score of 38.10 and a bias score of -7.27, it's still a very trustworthy source.

5. 
   The Wall Street Journal is the last news source in my top five, because WSJ leans towards Republicans on issues that have been fact-checked to harm the economy. At the same time, they praise it, with a reliability score of 43.09 and a bias score of 4.35, which fluctuates based on their reporting on current global problems.
