Suggested order

• Reuters World News

• Bloomberg Daybreak or FT News Briefing
• One international source such as DW, France 24, NHK World, or Radio New Zealand
• One long-form source such as ProPublica, The Atlantic, or The Daily

Notes

• Reuters and NPR are good first reads for the day.
• BBC, DW, France 24, NHK World, and Radio New Zealand help reduce U.S.-only framing.
• Bloomberg, FT, and WSJ are especially useful for markets, business, and policy.
• ProPublica and The Atlantic are better for depth than for rapid headline scanning.
