I seriously doubt your numbers. Granted, I'm older, but I subscribe to NYT and go there almost daily to read the headlines, a few stories, and a couple games. I hit a few others nearly daily as well for different takes. About 20 years ago, I used Google News, but I switched a long time ago to direct paper access because I didn't want to be fed only what I want to hear. I want a more holistic news diet.

Ditto. I was sick of sensationalism and click bait trash. Their research articles are also really well done and intelligent. I subscribe so I at least have one decent source without the mental burden of constantly having to sort fact from fiction.
