TikTok is a social media platform that provides different content. Whether the content is entertaining or informational we have the ability to consume it in such a short amount of time. Between the personal stories, educational videos, or breaking news TikTok is a great source for us to stay informed. TikTok's algorithm makes sure that you see content that would interest you. I recommend TikTok for its immediacy, and use it as a way to see reporters or different perspectives from a variety of people.
2. Instagram
Instagram is for visual content that mixes personal lives with professional sources. I use instagram to mainly keep up with friends and family but I also follow a few informational accounts that provide real life updates of current events. It's often that I come across posts that have an interesting headline and I take a moment to do some additional researching of my own. I recommend instagram for those who like visually driven content.
Since I'm from North Carolina, more specifically the triad area, I like to watch WRAL for more local news. It is a reliable local news outlet that gives information on not only weather, but events and important issues that arise in North Carolina. WRAL provides news in different regions that may not recieve national coverage. I recommend WRAL for those who want more local and up-to date information on what may be happening 20-30 minutes away from them.
4. Reuters
Reuters provides timely, unbiased coverage of news events across the world. It's a trusted source because of its factual reporting without editorializing. This news sources has a team of journalists that are able to cover stories from all over the world. I recommend Reuters because of its accuracy and ability to provide its readers clear and concise understanding of current events worldwide.
5. The New York Times
The New York Times (NYT) offers articles that are well researched, investigative reporting on global and domestic affairs, as well as thoughtful commentary. The website and app includes podcasts, videos and newsletters for different ways for their supporters to consume the content that they put out. I recommend NYT for its credibility and capability of making important news and information easy to consume.
