I would take the NY Times & the LA Times before any of the television networks or other publications.
Television and magazine news is more often than not superficial while newspaper journalism is more exhaustive.
No sources are perfect, but if you want credible coverage, you’re better off with The Atlantic, The Washington Independent, Democracy Now, The Nation, Foreign Policy, Politics Daily, Reason and the Economist.
