Ask HN: Which news reader/source do you rely on most?

5 points by kuldeep_kap 8 years ago | 6 comments

Lately in addition to HN, I am starting rely more on FB for my news, which is not great and Twitter seems to have a lot more chatter to able to track news more efficiently. I want to get to a place where i can check news once or max twice in day and still able to collect reasonable highlights in tech, science and business. I feel like HN alone is not sufficient. Any suggestions?

What primary news reader sources do you rely on apart from HN for great content and news? and how often do you check it?

Here are my sources:

Tech: Hacker News

Science and Culture: nautil.us and aeon.co

Politics, economics, foreign affairs: Project Syndicate, economist, priceonomics

I feel like HN alone is already too much in contributing too information overload. I'm often trimming my news sources.

That being said, I'd just check 2-3 reputable newspapers

I listen to BBC Radio Four "Today", "World at One", or "PM" (sometimes all of them). They don't have good tech or science content.

Reuters.

Google's News isn't bad.

I usually check once or twice a day.
