Support for both added, it should work when I release the bot.
Pretty much the main two that I use as well lmao
The Economist, Reuters, BBC, in no particular order.
Reuters and BBC were already done. It seems that Economist requires a subscription or at least registration? I'm afraid I can't help with that.

There is a lot of washington post, NY times and the guardian articles on here. Thanks for the awesome work!
Washington post added, Guardian was already there, NY Times requires an account and enabled JavaScript.
Thanks for the response and swift action! At the risk of asking an exceedingly dumb question: would it be possible to make one for archive.org? That way we could have articles from almost any source.
Can you send some link to an archive.org article? Can't find any there.
Sure! For example this one
Oh I see, no, that's sadly not possible to do universally, I have to evaluate the structure of each site to find the text content and archive basically copies the structure of the target website, meaning there's no single structure for achive.org.

Not my most-frequented, but definitely the one I admire most:
My bot now supports it!
Improvethenews is a collection of all news sources and provides all sides of an argument. This is one of the best news aggregators.
. If this is the “best”, I weep for the worst.
I for one am shocked that a site that pretty much positions itself as the lead centrists has shit takes.

I generally get my global news from BBC world news. They're pretty professional, to the point without getting sensational. Euronews is pretty good too, with a bit more focus on European events obviously. You just have to be aware they've sold their soul to Qatar. Other than that they're unbiased too.
Both are already supported in my bot! Didn't know the thing about Qatar, it sucks.
Well, I understand they have to pay for the real journalist work. So you'll occasionally see a piece about how awesome it is to get married in Qatar! If you can see through the underhanded deals, it's not a big deal. Just don't count of them mentioning human rights issues about foreign workers' working conditions in the construction sector.
Take a look at the Media Bias Chart (adfontesmedia.com) and you can find the top quality news sources.
not a website but a news aggregator app created by Instagram founders "Artifact"
out of curiosity: do you feel compelled to move over to open-source, non-algorithmic based news aggregation?
sounds interesting to me, I would definitely give it a try. artifact is not open source and it's AI powered. It seems to do a better job than a lot of news aggregators I tried before
do you use android or ios?
android
if you have f-droid, try Feeder. you basically set up your own sources and categories.
i mostly use bruh.news for everyday news, but it doesnt have the political articles like the Trustworthy Times
No cookies gives a Rick roll instead of showing the site for bruh.news. No thanks.
If you accept cookies it will also show you rick roll
set useragent to bruhnews and it should work
apparently its an ongoing bug with the website

Roca news
NBC, CBS, BBC, Axios, Reuters, and APNews. I ditched CNN a while ago. Just as long as they're not conservative, and I carefully look at whether they're corporate or not and make my take based on that.
Most of those were already supported by the bot, I added CBS and sadly I couldn't make Axios work with the bot.
Grauniad definitely
googled it to see if it was some new site, lol it's the Guardian.
It's an old joke, Guardian was known for insane amount of typos
Block Club Chicago
I was a founding donor back when they got started.

For Spanish news eldiario.es and elsaltodiario.com
For Andalusian news lavozdelsur.es
SCMP for local news, The Verge for tech stuff, and The Guardian for world news.
HackerNews. I get my world news and stuff from Lemmy or whatever. Only really care about the big stuff since too much news just stress me out.
