Since journalism is not the revered profession it once was, name the top five news sources you feel best meet the criteria of coverage, objectivity and accuracy.

Here's mine:

New York Times

Washington Post

Chicago Tribune

CNN (said holding nose)

NBC News (same nose)

What are yours?

as soon as the news starts being about "just the facts ma'am", then i'll start watching it more regularly. i get so sick and tired of hearing the newscasters/stations opinions and agendas i want to scream. i'm watching for the facts of what is going on in the world, not for corporate agendas to be shoved down my throat.
