Mainstream news outlets such as CNN and MSNBC are owned by billionaires. Conflict of interest?

Al-Jazeera has better balance, perspective, and integrity in reporting US current events than any major news outlet here.

I read Al-Jazeera. This is generally true, but Al-Jazeera is disgustingly sympathetic to Palestinians. They focus overwhelmingly on the plight of Palestinians in this situation with little regard for context or the big picture of things.

"Butchering Israeli civilians is okay because muh feelings, muh oppression, muh religion of violence."

I'm not a fan of Israel, but looking at the whole thing pragmatically, I want to see Muslims being brutalized. And nobody brutalizes Muslims better than Israel, except maybe other Muslims.

Otherwise it's a pretty great news source though. Objective with a slight economic-left and social-right slant.
