My 5 top sources for news and information 


When I was looking over my top 5 news sources from last semester, I thought my sources wouldn't change but it turns out I use many different outlets to receive my news. I found that so interesting because that was last semester, it goes to show that a lot can change in a course of 6 months.

CNN 

While CNN leans it's biased towards a liberal standpoint, when I need to see what's going on they are the ones that usually pop on. When I search for anything news-related, they are also the ones at the top of my search list. Something that also makes me automatically look at them for news is the fact that they also have a Spanish channel. I would say they are reliable but would also suggest looking at other news sources just so it isn't as biased and you get to see the whole picture.



The Washington Post

When I need to look at anything that relates to the president or congress, I always go see what "The Washington Post" has up. It gives me a good sense of what's new and happening around the U.S. The reason why this would be on my recommend list is because it gives you so much information on the government and they are constantly updating or making new articles.




The Wall Street Journal

The Wall Street Journal is one of my favorite news sources because they do a pretty good job of staying accurate and not going off biased. They focus on all points of news not just the government but everything that affects the U.S. I enjoy reading their articles and it helps me see the whole picture not just some parts of it.




Fox News

Fox News is definitely more on the Right side of biased, this is probably why I like to refer back to them whenever I have any questions about republicans or the President. I also always watch Fox 8 when I'm at home.



Univision

Univision will always be on my list because it's what I grew up watching. While it's not just a news channel, there are 3 to 4 different tv shows that focus solely on news. They do tend to focus more on social issues concerning the Latino community. They are also known for interviewing very important political figures around the world.

 The Supreme Court The Supreme Court is apart of the judicial branch. As you can probably tell since it does Supreme, they are the highest federal court for our nation. They make sure that laws are being practiced and that everything that goes on in court cases and new laws is constitutional. They also have the power to check the other two branches to make sure they aren't going overboard. The Supreme Court has 9 justices, who are the people that help make decisions and make sure the other two branches in the government are being constitutional when making laws or when people want to know if something is within their rights or not. The Beginning  While the Supreme Court was established in the constitution it wasn't of any use until 1803 when Marbury v.
