Blog 1: Top 5 Sources of News & Information

News and Information 

    Are you wondering what sources are reliable and what aren't? Especially in today's world, there is much debate on what sources tell you the real information or rather information you wanna hear. Some people simply do not even listen or stay up to date with what is going on and to me it is important I stay up to date using multiple sources to see what is going on. So now, let me tell you about my top five sources I use to get my daily news and information. 

    My number one source I use is FOX news, take a look here to get the latest inside scoop https://www.foxnews.com/. FOX News is where I mainly get all my information from it provides news on several topics all around the world. For me I like hearing about news not only just locally but world wide as well. As many might notice when listening to FOX is that it is conservative but for me, I enjoy how they are able to speak their mind and tell the truth. Although this might not be for everyone I believe it is a great way to get your news and information from. 

    My second source is The New York Times, click here to read more https://www.nytimes.com/.  The New York Times is known to have incredible editors who create many different categories on different topics. The way the website is set up allows for easy access to find up-to-date information. 

    My third source is The Wall Street Journal,  although most pay for a subscription, there are actually a few pieces of information that are available to read for free. Check out the link here to see what is going on today, https://www.wsj.com/?mod=wsjheader_logo.  The way I got started into Wall Street was because my dad would get the newspaper delivered daily and I decided to take it upon myself to see if I could find something similar but rather an electronic version. The Wall Street Journal not only provides your latest and greatest news information similar to other sources but also provides lifestyle information, sports, real estate, and economic news. 

    My fourth source of where I get my news and information is by going to ESPN at https://www.espn.com/. ESPN is a great source for all those who are into sports and enjoy getting updates on their sports teams whether that may be scores or something that occurred to the team that is published. 

    The fifth and final source I use is social media. In today's world especially with kids my age or around my age are using TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, or even Facebook to get their daily source of news.  The main one that draws me in is Tiktok, I could scroll for hours on end and either get a good laugh in or find out key information about what is going on in the world. Although some of these social media platforms could share false information, so could other sources I believe if you find something within a social media platform and you fact check it with another source it is more than likely true. Social media platforms are also a quick and easy way for everyone to grab their information.
