Given that the Washington Times is owned by Rev. Moon (of the Moonies
fame) and has been caught more than a few times not only getting the
story wrong, but fabricating elements of some of those stories, I put
no credulance in the paper.

The story on Roy Moore in the TFP was incorrect in a number of
different ways, first is that he substantially violated the law and
the constitution, and was quite unrepentant. The article in question
stated that it was persecution by the ACLU. Hello! Excuse Me but the
issue was his violating the constitution.

As for reputable papers, Times of London, Manchester Guardian, the
Washington Post, San Francisco Examiner are good examples as is the
Ottawa Citizen, as for radio, the CBC, BBC and NPR are good, as is
CSPAN. I don't watch cable or broadcast media.
