I cannot afford all the trusted sources I know.

And that is just how those magots like it.

(I mean like, it would cost a few cents) - there are a LOT of articles I wish I could read but I cannot pay for dozens of "subscriptions"

Some have e-media options that include major newspapers.

thanks!

I’m a librarian and with our databases you can read the daily paper, the NYT, and the Boston Globe the day they come out.

I use NoScript - a browser extension that prevents various server-side scripts from running when a site loads. For many paywalled news sites, I can still read the text; some images and things like surveys (ugh), videos and other non-text elements may or may not appear. Doesn't really matter if all you want is the actual news.

This does not work on every site; I can't read any murdoch sites but then I don't want to. There are a few others but not enough to cut me off from up to date news. Sometimes the settings need to be tweaked a bit and the learning curve can look daunting but it's really not difficult and freely available on browser extension pages.

i'm sure i'm not the only person sick of msm bullshit. cancelled my wapo, and dont even want to give my email to read a gift nyt article.
meanwhile the propaganda is free.

imho giving a certain number of freebies is smart business, but that's getting rare.

But conspiracy and propaganda sites are almost always free
