Related: About this forumCan I trust Scripps News?
I just recently stumbled across Scripps News. It describes itself as independent. A looksee makes me think they are not trying to normalize the orange monstrosity and its minions, but I'd like a second or third or fifty-ninth opinion. Thanks in advance.

I have on occasion watched their news. My advice is they are better than most, but still wouldn't trust them

to be unbiased in their reporting.

help others. I recommend that one.
