I think of all the available news outlets, the BBC is the best way to go. I say this because unlike news networks like CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and FOX, the BBC has hardly any bias and practically all the stories they cover are covered as is instead of the story they want you to see or read. It's also good that nearly all the stories the BBC covers actually have some importance to them, since you'll hardly see them cover something as trivial as Kim Kardashian's short-lived marriage.
I'll finish by saying that it's pretty bananas that for an American to get the best coverage of events taking place in their own country, they have to get it from a British company.
