I go out of my way to get news from honest actors who have different biases: libertarian, liberal. conservative, progressive.
In a technical sense, bias means someone tends to get things wrong in the same direction, so if you balance your feed, those biases should cancel out.
However, I won't watch dishonest actors; i.e. someone who gets caught making stuff up, changing their position with out explanation, or refusing to acknowledge evidence that's contrary to their world view.
Currently, I get most of my news/analysis from Dave Smith, Tim Pool, and Kim Iversen, while keeping tabs on what Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi, Jimmy Doore, Tucker Carlson, Krystal Ball, and Sagar Enjeti are saying about stuff.
That's really cool to see they are in acting careers. I want to know what movies they play in. I saw a trailer with Ice Cube and Tucker Carlson in a car one time. I am trying to find out when that movie is coming out.
