You might be missing the point of the OP, your news aggregators is an aggregation of a story you're being told.

you do realize that there are other news sources like DW or AZ who do publish counter to the big cooperate news outlets as well?

Cool. Which one of those has the information about politics and laws and other news in my state that I should be paying attention to?

Because right now, as far as I can tell, it's either state public media or one of the corporations.

they both have reporters around the world in unlikely places, go check them out yourself

They don't have them in Indiana. And they certainly don't have any reporting regularly on state issues.

[–] orrk@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

did you actually look? or are you just assuming? because they both have an India branch

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

DW or AZ
