Screenshot says it. Please recommend alternative Leftist news sources. I am in UK but I read news from anywhere, any language if my browser can access it/translate it.

Here in UK, I have tried The Canary, Novara Media, Byline Times, Morning Star - all have strengths and weaknesses, none are a perfect fit. Still looking for my ‘daily paper’.

Thanks!

    Aljazeera is good. I once read CSM and thought it surprisingly good, not what I expected from the title, but that was around 1980s - have never seen it in recent years!

      The Christian Science Monitor is amazing, and from it’s name you’d never expect it.

      My grandmother was a Christian Scientist. I respect her but it’s a baffling cultish offshot.

      Its basis, though, was in radiacal feminism in the late 1800s. I used to read the Christian Science Monitor when we would visit her when I was a kid.

      A large part of why I defaulted to atheism is from the fact that my Dad’s parents were never openly religious, my Dad is a Buddhist, my mom was nominally Christian, her mom we already discussed, and her Dad was a Congregationalist Minister and organ player.

      I figured none of them could be right and it was better to try to be a good person without those structures.

      Grandma and I never saw eye to eye, unfortunately.

      I agree, it isn’t what I expected at all. I really like how they have a section telling you why they wrote the article. Check out their website. Wonder what it was like in the 80s?
