John W @fredddddd.bsky.social · 28/11/2025Agreed. Independent like CPI, NPR, ProPublica, PBS. Avoid the aforementioned news media, including Newsmax and Fox. The best way to learn/understand is to read something and then go to the primary news source and read the whole thing. If a new bill is proposed, go read the bill, don’t be lazy. 010
