was wondering what you might recommend?
BBC for rolling news (radio and tv) and C4 news for the tv news program.
I think BBC News24 has gone to shit recently so generally go Al Jezeera. I'll watch Ch4 or RTE news in the evening if I haven't caught any during the day. IMO it'll be a dead medium soon.

+1
At least you know the BBC is slightly left and the coverage is good. C4 is a bit confrontational, but that's better than sycophantic.
ITV is like trying to watch the daily mail sometimes.
For a laugh at how bad things could be without the BBC, RT and FOX.
None, they've all got an 'angle'. Same with anyone's opinion/view on anything I suppose, but media outlets are especially convoluted, worryingly deep rooted in financial interests and their intended messages are, on occasion, brilliantly subtle.
I'm not some 'hide away from everything recluse' but the idea of relying on one media option for info isn't a good one.
Just flick though whatever you feel like watching/viewing and keep an open mind.

Europe 1 radio in the morning then at some time in the day TF1, ntv, Euronews (usually with German sound). If I miss TF1 news I watch BFM for a cycle. CNBC once a week. I feel a need for my dose so that makes me a news addict. I get my English news here, if it's not on the first page of STW chat it's not news.

I miss Fox news. I used to watch it for fun, but it melted my brain at the same time. Like some kind of bitingly satirical post modern skit....but there are people who actually believe that shit.
The Today Programme when driving or walking to work.
R4 morning and night, Al Jazeera / BBC / C4, depending what's on.
Newsnight on i player. The Guardian not a TV channel but very well worth reading online. Al Jazeera? Really? Isn't it as bad as RT? I must admit I haven't watched it so maybe I should. Is it not massively anti-western? Wasn't it in support of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt?
I tend just read BBC news in thier App. Some people think the BBC is all terribly right-on and left wing biased, but I find them very fair and down the middle - they're also first the report on thier own mistakes.
I don't want the TV news, not because of some high and might anti TV stance, but there's usually something better on at 10.
If i watch the news ,it's BBC. Mostly listen and read,again BBC .
"I can get all the news I need from the weather report".
Get all my news online C4,De Welle Al Jazeera Various newspapers online. Always look for more than one source of any major story.
Virtually all online, mainly BBC and more rarely the Guardian. Some places like tech news/culture sites can be sort of incidental sources (e.g. deployment of US troops to countries that aren't in the news so much here).
For TV news C4. BBC main TV news is in a really sorry state, seems to be in a race to the bottom with ITV.
I miss Fox news. I used to watch it for fun, but it melted my brain at the same time. Like some kind of bitingly satirical post modern skit....but there are people who actually believe that shit.

Realistically STW, news is depressing but this place helps make it more entertaining.
