Are there any news apps or outlets worth your time anymore?

It’s become harder and harder for me to find reliable news outlets and I’m forced to sift through the lies and propaganda before I can get to any facts or even the point of the article. The Apple news app just continuously sends me notifications from leftist rags, even though I tell it not to.

What are y’all using and reading these days?

I use the Conservative News app on my tablet (Droid) and it gives you all the conservative news you could ever want from all the best outlets.

You can remove Drudge in settings, which is what I chose to do. PJ Media, Breitbart, Newsmax, Townhall, Daily Wire, Daily Caller, Red State, Gateway Pundit, American Thinker .... they all feed the Conservative News app.

I removed The Blaze, Drudge, National Review one other.

1st step is to stop reading opinion pieces. Next step stop reading churnalism articles. Third step go to reuters.com and look at the headlines (don't read anything further), oil prices, the stock market. pretty soon you will realize that there isn't much newsworthy these days. That will be all you will need. Drink your coffee step outside for some fresh air and get on with your life. It will be refreshing.

I presume this will work on a Kindle?

Where do you DL it? Can you get it w/o going through Google or Amazon?

I downloaded it off of the Google Play Store for both my Samsung phone and tablet. It has a red newspaper avatar.


I've also got it on my iPad but it has a different avatar ..... a big Block C in red. The Apple Store Conservative News app also includes Twitchy, Canada Free Press, GOP USA, Conservative News Daily and some other sources not mentioned above. IJR, Washington Times, News Busters, Taki's, Western Journalism, et al.

Those outlets are not above falsities as well.

Some of the British papers report novel headlines, but none stick out above the rest. Yahoo comments seem to have become a refuge for exiled conservatives- I’m sure they’ll be disabled soon. It’s kinda dark times, better to scan headlines then go about your day.

Whatfinger.com
OANN.com
Breitbart.com
Zerohedge.com
PJmedia.com (occasionally)

I'd go with Whatfinger as the place to kick off your morning 30,000 foot view of the world.

Sometimes I’ll watch the local Memphis news to laugh at the ridiculous crimes the locals come up with.
