As the soul of being unprejudiced, I recommend finding the Larry Elder Show on your radio. He comes at things from a libertarian point of view, and has the most sensible views of race relations you're going to find.

I also recommend Mark Levin's a radio show for its intellectual power. His books concentrate this further.

Ben Shapiro also has a show, and I've two of his excellent books, one a quick history of the philosophy of Western Civ and why we should not lose it, no how.
Those are not news sources.

There are quite a few people who pull up to a desk and do this sort of thing -- a thing which edifies the reader. I find their thinking good.

This reading is something xoxoxoBruce gives no sign of ever having done in all his days. His recourse to the non-argument of hollow fleering -- and his manifest belief this would carry the day -- are symptoms of this neglect. Bruce -- you're no good at this.

Right essayist, social COMMENTARY = opinions.
Not news, which is what UT said. DUH
Spouting garbage you agree with doesn't make it news, or worth reading.
