Progressive News Outlets and Their Jouurnalists

TYT, The Damage Report, The Kyle Kulinski Show, Krystal Ball of Breaking Points, Democracy Now, The Vanguard. Any others? The best? The Worst? Many of them say they are the alternative to what they call corporate news media. I started with TYT (The Young Turks), but have been looking at other outlets. Are they as genuine as they claim?

Discuss.

Can’t take Kyle or Krystal seriously anymore because they’re all sucky-face nowadays. It potentially could get in the way of them being unbiased.

Russian troll thread alert.

Love Ana Kasparian and Jon Iadarola. Cenk is okay too. I have to read up on his feud with Kyle though…

Kulinski is a kook.

TYT = Russian funding.

I stopped watching them ages ago because they had become too shrill and pedantic for me. But I was surprised to see that transgender journalist Ben Carollo had parted ways with them after Ana Kasparian criticized some transgender leaders, accusing them of being misogynistic towards cisgender women.

I get all the news I need from Datalounge.

Which are the good news outlets?

What about the AP news site?

Kyle and Crystal are married now. When Kyle swears on his show I get a boner every time.

I enjoy listening to Kyle Kulinski and Krystal Ball (with Saagar Enjeti, who is billed as her foil, though they are usually on the same page) as well as Ana Kasparian, who seems more open of late in terms of her opinions which now go off the doctrinaire script. I think Briahna Joy Gray makes solid arguments, though I sense DL on the whole hates her for the Bernie affiliation. She works her ass off, however, and she has a good presence, at least on audio. (I just listen while I spend hours doing housework.

I am not progressive by any measure and frequently disagree with a lot of the ideas put forth, but I appreciate hearing them presented with intelligence and without bombast.

I’m curious what/who else DLers are listening to.

I’m glad Ana didn’t back down from Ben Carollo. She’s a bit shrill at times as has been said before but she was in the right.

The only one not annoying me now is David Pakman.

Ana has become a fiery one lately. Taking no prisoners.
