A Note about News Sources

A number of the news sources listed below will feature articles written through some sort of lens, or frame. All of the news resources listed below are reputable, but many have a slight slant. It is important to be aware of these as you read the news: what information is being left out? What are they saying? What other information do you need to find on your topic to supplement the first article and provide a well-rounded view of the situation? These are questions you need to consider as you read the news, and all information, really. This is why we cite multiple sources.
