On the Internet I go to BBC, NPR, and Aljazeera for stories likely to have excessive western bias.

I dislike the whole idea of those customizable "news" feeds that only show you what you like, or block subject X and Y.
I feel an obligation to be at least minimally informed of hard news stories.

That said I have no interest in popular celebrity news, I mean gossip, so I skip over those stories.
Actually I don't consider that to be news.
I almost never know whom someone is talking about if the conversation is about famous entertainment folks.
I don't mind being ignorant about this topic.
I'm curious which feeds you're referring to. Agree it's not a great plan to edit sources. Editing topics (celebrity) is a must.
