The news outlet I read every day is the Financial Times. Sharp, worldly, not overwritten. Worth the money in my opinion. I also pay for WSJ and NYT which give different American perspectives. 

If I were going to pay for another news outlet I might get a Bloomberg subscription. 

I also recommend subscribing to whatever local/regional outlet you have. If you’re in New England, the Boston Globe is unbeatable.

An answer to who's the journalist for journalists

Mainstream journalism is under the same corporatist cronyism like the government. The only way to keep it balanced is to study competing narratives and make up your own mind.
