I used to read the Daily Mail for my daily quota of outrage, anger, sensationalism, lies and wacky stories

Now I read After Hours

I just browse through all sorts of news sources online, RTÉ is both useless in regional and international terms.

All I need for a fair and balanced viewpoint!

Those who are saying they are getting their news from Reddit should realize that the sentiment on Reddit as Wacko Left as Fox is Wacko Right. The vast majority of news sources that make the front page are as reputable as say the Daily Star, heck not even that reputable.
