Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

I want to switch from those American for profit news outlets to Euro or non-profit news outlets, what are my options?

I will list the ones I know and I find here:

  • Bloomberg: TBA.
  • Reuters : Associated Press.
  • New York Times: Follow The Money, Mediapart.
  • Politico: The Guardian.
  • The Verge: The Register, Techzine, Heise.

What about the British broadcasting corporation, BBC, Canadian broadcasting corporation CBC Australian broadcasting corporation ABC? Also America's own PBS and NPR are very much in need of support at the moment

Investigate local, community-run radio stations and independent news services, student journalism projects etc in your area as well. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_community_radio_stations_in_the_United_States

I don't think they replace any specific news outlet from the ones I listed.

I'm confused. I mean, New York Times and Reuters are generalist news outlets. Politico is a politics news and analysis site. In what respect are the public broadcasters not offering what you're looking for? I love The Guardian but I don't see how it's a better match?

BBC News and ABC News and CBC News services (podcasts or read online) are good for general and political & business world news and analysis, including US news. They have news streams, in-depth analysis pieces and a huge range of podcasts.

PBS and NPR have online news streams and podcasts on all of these topics also.

Check out The Conversation, too.

Politico is German, owned by Axel Springer SE

Reuters is Canadian

That said I think choosing the AP as an alternative is still good as far as organizational hierarchy goes.

Reuters aid government agencies in their investigations.

Matter of fact, they got sued for their privacy.

More about this:

On Oct. 11, a San Francisco judge gave preliminary approval to a settlement that would see Thomson Reuters cough up $27.5 million, mostly to state residents. The deal caps off a legal battle that began in 2020: Two Alameda County activists sued the media giant over its Clear product, accusing the company of compiling millions of people’s personal data and putting it up for sale on the searchable database.
