Ask HN: What Are Some Good African, Asian, South American News Websites?

35 点作者 danj超过 5 年前
I&#x27;m constantly looking to build and increase my knowledge of the world, but I realised the &#x27;World&#x27; section of many news websites I follow (NYTimes, Wash Post, Guardian, BBC, FT, WSJ etc) do not have a particular large amount of African, Asian, South American news.<p>What news websites do you guys know&#x2F;recommend to follow for news in these countries? Language would preferably be in English.

Al Jazeera should definitely be on your list for non-Western coverage: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aljazeera.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aljazeera.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;</a><p>Their coverage of the middle-East is likely to be biased by their Qatari ownership, but they cover major world stories neglected by the Western press. More details about their potential bias here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Al_Jazeera_controversies_and_criticism" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Al_Jazeera_controversies_and_c...</a>.

<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.project-syndicate.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.project-syndicate.org&#x2F;</a> because its more from the source of international figures, a bit like an Twitter for intelligent international scholars and public figures.

For Asian regional news in English I&#x27;d recommend Southern China Morning Post. It&#x27;s based out of Hong Kong and still independent from the CCP&#x27;s grasp (for now).

The Intercept and Democracy Now cover South America quite a bit.<p>Particularly politics and environmental issues, for example Glenn Greenwald lives and has been reporting in Brazil.<p>Some good advice someone gave me awhile ago was to follow journalists themselves instead of news outlets

I would recommend the Economist for well-written world news. It&#x27;s not free, but well worth paying for. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.economist.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.economist.com&#x2F;</a>

I&#x27;m a big fan of NHK. This is their news, but they have some other programming thats kinda similar to PBS <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www3.nhk.or.jp&#x2F;nhkworld&#x2F;en&#x2F;news&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www3.nhk.or.jp&#x2F;nhkworld&#x2F;en&#x2F;news&#x2F;</a>

Thank you! For all the suggestions, I&#x27;ll definitely be adding all of these to my list. Any more suggestions is greatly appreciated!

In South Africa, the Daily Maverick and the Mail &amp; Guardian. Both more politics than breaking news, both left-leaning, both well-regarded.

If you want actual coverage I would go to bellingcat

for news about India, you can use The Hindu. Generally, the articles tends to be neutral to left-leaning.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thehindu.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thehindu.com&#x2F;</a>

&gt; I follow (NYTimes, Wash Post, Guardian, BBC, FT, WSJ etc)<p>What&#x27;s the point? They are all essentially the same news company. They push the same narrative and agenda. Just pick one and move on with your day.<p>The problem is that a lot of african, asian and south american news companies are created by, owned by or run by by westerners. And most of them, like the SCMP, were created by the west to push western propaganda. So essentially, you aren&#x27;t getting african, asian and south american news. You are getting western propaganda about african, asian and south american news.<p>Also, africa, asia and south america are huge continents. I don&#x27;t think there is such a thing called &quot;african, asian and south american&quot; news.<p>For geopolitical news, xinhua&#x2F;cgtn for china, rt for russia, al jazeera, etc. They are all biased propaganda, just like the (NYTimes, Wash Post, Guardian, BBC, FT, WSJ etc), but you get a different biased perspective. I find that they are generally good at pointing each others lies.<p>&gt; What news websites do you guys know&#x2F;recommend to follow for news in these countries? Language would preferably be in English.<p>Why not just follow vlogs of countries you are interested? Or visit the countries you are interested in? Or find some forums&#x2F;irc&#x2F;etc of the countries you are interested in and talk directly to the people?<p>News, by and large, is a great waste of time. Most of it is toxic nonsense written by people who know nothing about the subject they are covering.
