I think the best hope is to cast a wide net, and hope that you can find sources that have complementary biases. You shouldn't avoid the mainstream US media, but you should be aware that many apparently independent sources share similar blindspots and prejudices. Within the US, I think a lot of the better writers are now working freelance and publishing on Substack: Glenn Greenwald, Matt Yglesias, and Bari Weiss come to mind. Outside the US, the Canadian, Australian, and British press sometimes have a different slant. Aljazeera often does investigative journalism with a different perspective. I haven't found any great single source in English, and don't read any other languages well enough to rely on them.
