  • Propaganda, But You Can Learn from It

    I’m fine hearing points of view that don’t match my own, but I’d give this podcast more stars if I didn’t know all news from the People’s Republic of China is hand-picked by the government. They’re not always wrong, but they’re never self-critical, so take everything you hear with a grain of salt. Anytime they report on the Uyghurs, maybe take the whole shaker

  • Objective world news

    News as it should be. Objective, fast, and consistently and frequently updated. As for bias, I’m sure there is some, but compared to most news that are basically just propaganda, it’s minimal. Seeing the truth requires as many perspectives as possible.
