 1. ABC News: https://abcnews.go.com/ 

    I like ABC news as a news source because they make a habit of covering both domestic and international stories. While I admittedly care more about the news that is occurring in our own country, it is undeniable that we as citizens need to be aware of the state that the rest of our world is in as well. While it can be argued that ABC news has turned toward left leaning preferences, their stories stand to offer just as many important contrasts to the perspectives of opposing news sources as others.


2. Fox News: https://www.foxnews.com/



    Most of my exposure to fox news comes from my parents having it on every time I go home for break. While fox news is undeniably a right leaning news source, I have found that they provide a good amount of commentary on international and economic events in addition to their political opinions. I think that it is important for people to consume news from multiple different perspectives, and I find that fox news tends to have perspectives that I rarely see on other platforms.


3. Apple News: https://www.apple.com/apple-news/publications/



    While I do not go out of my way to look at the news very often, I find that apple news makes it somewhat easier to navigate since it is easy to use and easy to access. Apple news pulls together stories from various other sources to present to the user based on what it thinks is applicable to them, which I honestly think could be either positive or negative depending on the person. The collection of stories from separate locations has the potential to offer fresh and relevant information on a daily basis


4. The Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/ 

    The Washington post seems to be a credible/ respected news source that prioritizes in-depth investigative stories, which usually seem to be relevant when they appear. Unfortunately the Washington Post uses a subscription service, making it hard to access sometimes for people like me who do not pay for it.


5. British Broadcasting Corporation: https://www.bbc.com/

    Because the BBC is not located in the United states, they seem to stand the best chance at remaining impartial to American politics. As a non- american entity, they are in a unique position compared to many of the other major news outlets to provide a credible perspective on important issues without being impacted by the influences that sway our own sources. In addition to this, the BBC also gives Americans an interesting lens to view the events of Europe and the rest of the world through.
