            https://www.nytimes.com 

The New York Times is one of the most known news stations globally. It is one of the most main stream networks known. It can be difficult to trust sites that go for the most views. As the media cites fight for the main spot in the news world, I struggle to trust all of what they say; however with the resources and times in the business New York Times is a verified sources and is quite and strong one for college students.

    2. CNN    

            http://cnn.com

Cable News Network or CNN, is an American news station that is used by billions each day. The site can be used for all sorts of information spreading a wide variety of topics. This can also be used for a strong political side. I use this source for any present and political news. 

    3. Reddit

Reddit is a vast website with an almost endless amount of "subreddits" to enjoy. This site gives                                                                                                          the user the access to learn and read amount anything going on in today's time. From celebrities to technology this site has it all. I personally use this site whenever I want to deep dive into a specific topic, rather than searching for several cites, I can find links and news simultaneously on Reddit.

    4. ESPN Sports Center

The Washington Post is primarily a political news site however can be used for a lot of things. This site can be used by anyone searching for leads of the present life. What is so nice about the site is that it is a leaning political side. It is remarkable that this site can be used for bias information.
