Over 200,000 people canceled their subscriptions in the first few days following news that The Washington Post would not endorse any presidential candidate.
Honestly, I would say a news agency like the Associated Press is really good for national and international news. I’ll say that I really like The Atlantic, but that’s more of a news magazine than a traditional newspaper. If you want a good mix with minimal sources, I would say Associated Press and The Guardian for national and international news; The Atlantic for political analysis; Mother Jones/ProPublica for investigative journalism; and a big newspaper in your state for statewide news (especially a major metropolitan area). Just off the top of my head, but those are ones I’d choose if I needed just a single source for those things.
If you want, I highly recommend creating an RSS feed for multiple sources. I only started using it in 2024, but it works great.
