News Sites

Just to be clear, not asking for an opinion on them. Just options. I really need a news website that has a simple, clean interface. Obviously, non-biased/slanted is the larger of the preference here, besides varied content. Anyone know of any? I can’t use the big players for obvious reasons. Slashdot was decent, now not so much. I need a new homepage to recap on what is going on in the U.S. and the World… any tips are really appreciated.

Have a look at Channel News Asia. You might find it a nice change. ‘Non bias/slanted’, seems an unrealistic aim, but ‘less bias’, seems doable!

I use the BBC website.

You might like to use Newsprism as a launchpoint. It isn’t a news site itself, it’s an organized set of links to news sites, arranged as a spectrum from left to right, liberal to conservative.

I like to get a taste of each side’s version/assumptions about the hot story of the day, and I can do that using this starting point.

Since the OP is looking for advice, let’s move this to IMHO.

I’ve been happy with news.google.com

It’s not all obvious to me what you consider to be the “big players” or why you can’t use them.

I like debka.com

Same here. Strikes me as rather odd and actually rather non-obvious.
