@Dhmspector I think overall, it could be a big win, if pundants don't go overboard commercializing the opportunity, and people actively listen. PBS is very good at ridding the wolves of their sheep's clothing. Like this exchange here...

#StPaul mayor responds to unrest triggered by federal immigration raids
Jan 21, 2026
"The Trump Administration’s surge of ICE agents has arrived in the state of Maine, where at least 50 people have been detained. In Minnesota, the surge is now in its third week, and state and local officials are continuing to push back against the federal presence in the Twin Cities. Geoff Bennett discussed more with St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her."

To paraphrase #GoldenGlobes host #NikkiGlaser, "CBS News is the latest place to see BS news".
Since being sued by #convictedFelon #sexOffender #DonaldTrump and having its management replaced with #conservative lapdogs, #CBSNews is no longer cutting edge or hard hitting.
For accurate TV news, we can still turn to #PBSNewsHour, until it runs out of funding. News on Canada's #CBC is also a good alternative.

Getting Real News in 2025: How to Stay Informed Without Getting Overwhelmed – A DWD Report
Getting Real News in 2025: How to Stay Informed Without Getting Overwhelmed
The modern news environment can feel very exhausting. Outrage cycles, partisan labeling, AI-generated misinformation, and collapsing trust in institutions have made it harder than ever to know what is real. But reliable, fact-based journalism does still exist — and with the right approach, anyone can build a healthy “news diet” that keeps them informed without being overwhelmed.
1. Why the News Feels So Chaotic Today
- Polarization distorts everything. Even high-quality outlets get pushed into “left” or “right” boxes, making trust harder to establish. Social media is terrible to monitor for “news,”, so much garbage. Treat social media information as suspect for any truth.
- AI slop is everywhere. Fake quotes, auto-written articles, and manipulated images now circulate faster than fact-checkers can respond. It will come, note the content, and delete.
- Cable news thrives on drama. Much of it is emotional commentary, not reporting. Reliable channels like MSNOW, CNN, and few others do mix sensational with real news. Some will be on point. Use discretion in their over-the-top calls, crisis time, etc.
- Opinion is often mistaken for journalism. Lines blur, and audiences are left to sort fact from spin on their own. Sadly, the truth today. You must be your own filter, as best you can.
2. A Better Way: Build a Balanced “News Diet”
No single outlet is perfect. A mix of professional, edited, fact-checked sources offers the best clarity. Here’s one recommended way to stay with solid sources. Choose free when you can to follow sources. Limit any “paid” sources to a few trustworthy sources.
Reliable Baseline Reporting (Calm, Fact-Based)
Depth, Context & Investigations
Public Broadcasting (High-Trust Journalism)
3. Smart Habits for Navigating Today’s News
- Choose 1–2 daily “anchor” sources. AP, Reuters, or NPR offer a stable foundation.
- Add a couple of depth or investigation sources. WaPo, WSJ, PBS provide analysis without sensationalism.
- Follow at least one local or regional outlet. Local journalism keeps you connected to lived reality. Your local news tv stations, newspapers, local journals or sites for your area.
- Treat social media as unverified. Screenshots and viral posts are the most common vectors of misinformation. Major point. Much of social media is clearly unreliable, and tons of it. Very little general posts have much “news,” or value. Treat as suspect, until verified elsewhere.
- Double-check anything shocking. If AP or Reuters has not reported it, pause before believing or sharing. Pause, reflect, does this sound wonky? 🙂
4. Avoiding AI-Generated Misinformation
AI tools have dramatically increased low-quality, misleading content. Protect yourself by:
- Favoring outlets with real editors and named journalists.
- Verifying quotes, sources, and documents independently.
- Avoiding screenshot-based “news” as primary evidence.
- Subscribing to human-curated newsletters, including:
Editor’s Note: This is one-way to set up your news and sources for less noise, more value. Keep your eye on problem posts, social media, even your vetted sources. Stuff slips through, watch and act to dismiss or ignore those with “warning signs.” Looks like made-up, garbage, reposted a ton, and so on. Use your smarts now, and stay in the know. –DrWeb. Leave me your questions or responses in the comments, and good news in your future.

How the Trump administration is dramatically reshaping education in America – YouTube
17,516 views, Oct 19, 2025.
In March, Trump signed an executive order to begin shutting down the Department of Education, though it would take an act of Congress to actually close it. In the meantime, the department is taking dramatic steps toward fulfilling a conservative vision of a reshaped primary and secondary education system.
John Yang speaks with ProPublica investigative reporter Jennifer Smith Richards for more. Watch PBS News for daily, breaking and live news, plus special coverage.

Leonard Peltier is being interviewed on tonight's Cascade PBS News Hour.
To many supporters, Leonard Peltier was a political prisoner unjustly punished for his activism with the American Indian Movement. To his critics, he is a remorseless killer of two FBI agents in 1975, a charge he denies. President Biden commuted Peltier’s sentence, restricting him to home confinement.
Locally carried in Seattle area (from Tiger Mountain transmitter?) by KCTS on OTA channel 9-1

@bbcnewsfeed They made it!! Epic stuff.
We watched an interview on #PBSNewsHour with the three brothers from their kitted out row boat. They were still 500 miles out from Australia on their way across the Pacific.
It's great that they've raised so much money for charity along the way.
