Idk, there are good things in NYT. The Ezra Klein podcast is particularly thoughtful and exploratory over a variety of topics.

CNN is very lowest common denominator.

Ezra Klein's picture is in the dictionary next to the "neoliberal" entry.

Right before the election he was on a Bloomberg podcast doing a premature endzone dance promoting Kamala's suburbs-and-cheney strategy. The Bloomberg person asked about unions and Ezra pretty much said there should be consequences for the Teamsters not endorsing her after Biden 'bailed out their pension.'
