Whatever made you think I would trust the NYT????
Actually, I trust little that I read, unless it seems to make sense, or be in agreement with several sources. But in the end, only God knows. ooooops! many people don't believe in Him, either. Guess the mere name Al Jazeera sort of makes me feel there may be a bias in favor of beliefs and teaching with which I cannot agree.....if that is biased, so be it. Reading through many of the headlines on theintercept.com site, makes me wonder if there is any such thing as non-biased reporting.
That leaves me with the local gossip/news in local news papers.....most of that is verifiable because most of us know one another pretty well and can sort the probable from the wildly far fetched, if such should be printed.
