- I didn't know this.
- Should we include breaking points because it includes Ryan and Krystal ball, or exclude it because they co-host with reactionaries?
- Wouldn't call them totally enshittified but agreed that Drop Site has the better reporting now.
- The Intercept is still pretty great. That happened a while ago and the articles they are putting out still cover the same kind of topics and from the same positions, at least that I've noticed. Every article I've seen has been covering stuff that the mainstream media wouldn't, and from the left. I don't go to their site to skim, but I haven't seen any bad articles.
I didn’t see this one on the list: https://www.qiaocollective.com/
Though tbf it doesn’t look like they publish very often these days :/
- Skipped the entire of 2023, interesting.
More lefitsh than leftist, but In These Times and The Real News are generally good for U.S. labor news.
@DivineChaos100@hexbear.net posted a long list of news sources a while back, both mainstream and left, from a wide range of tendencies.
- Didn't real news drop Chris Hedges bc he said he wasn't voting for Biden when he was still in
  
  Yes. We're going to have serious complaints about any U.S.-based site. Their excuse was because of something to do with non-profit status and rules about endorsements. They attack Biden all the time, though, and had good coverage of the would-be railroad strike.
- Unfortunately that list isn't online anymore so i'm working from inoreader now
For Portugal:
https://www.abrilabril.pt/
I think Black Agenda Report deserves a mention.
I would add The Narwhal to the list of Canadian sources. Not exactly a politically left paper, but has a left lean and focuses on environmental issues. It's good.
There’s The Red Stream (https://thered.stream/) that would be under World.
Are there any news sites with half-decent English coverage of events in China/East Asia? I still feel so isolated from a quarter of humans because I literally never see news except "China bad". Otherwise I'm gonna just have to learn Mandarin.
- Friends of Socialist China
- Sixth Tone
  CGTN
  Asia Times
  I have more on the feed reader on my laptop that I can post when I get home.
Mostly Spain-based, but with presence in other countries as well: Izquierda Revolucionaria and their roughly monthly newspaper "El Militante"
I need to save this and go over it with what I have. I would add:

Time to update my RSS.
Maybe you can put a note next to WSWS (published articles defending sexual predators) and Morning Star (they fuck with TERFs, or so i was told).
Also if The Guardian is here i think Common Dreams and Truthout can go to the US tab, they're more succdems but actually doing great job as a news service.
Prensa Latina is even better, it's mostly Cuba centered but have news from most AES.
For anarchist news there's uhhhh Anarchist News and It's Going Down and Act for freedom
BreakThrough news
couple more from aus
red ant (these guys do a lot of good work) - https://red-ant.org/
cpa-ML - https://www.cpaml.org/
rco for good measure but not sure they do news? https://www.revcomorg.info/
RAHU - sometimes publish articles www.rahu.org.au
oh backlashblogs (their standards arent incredible tho) - https://backlashblogs.wordpress.com
BPU - https://www.blackpeoplesunion.org/
sorry this list is a bit shit maybe but youre including acp and cpa so might as well
Naked Capitalism, perhaps. I don't think they are necessarily leftist per se but have always struck me as progressive and have in depth analysis of current events with a critical eye to the neoliberal party line.
