Where do you go for news?

It is with great regret I learned today that Inka Binka was signing off. It was the only news source I was able to locate that reported the news the way I like: Briefly. In only three sentences, leaving little room for commentary. Just the facts: Who, What, Where, and When. It wasn't the complete news. Just enough to start the day. It alerted me to stories that I could follow up. I've begun looking for a new source but hold little hope. I wish it had lasted. I recommended Inka Binka to everyone I knew. Yes, I mentioned it on RP several times. Sadly it wasn't enough to build their subscriber base and make them economically viable. Therein lies the problem. When you find something you like - a restaurant, a store, whatever - you should help promote it so it will be there when you want to go back. Well, at least that's the theory of word-of-mouth advertising. You'd think it would work well on social media, wouldn't you? So, if anyone knows of some other news source that meets my criteria, please let me know. I'm not looking for a conservative or a liberal purveyor of news, just one that reports the news quickly and concisely, without a lot of BS

That happens when you find something that fits perfectly into your life, then they yank the rug out from under you.

If you want just the basics you could try an AP news feed.
