News is always algorithmically chosen. There no way to avoid an algorithm choice of thenext frame presented to me. There is no neutral news place. We like to think we are on solid ground but more. realistically it is like we are on a wave riding surfboard, very undtable.
I imagine a news site that, instead of what is hot today and no followup to what was hot yesterday and instead gives updates to the issues I think of as key stories for us. For example my list of key interests might be
Climate thinking
New tech and society
Governance innovations
Prison reform
Food systems
Nuclear civil and military
So each day Iwould be presented all debelopments in those stories and no others (we can always look at other sites). This would keep us informed about all developments in what interests us rather than episodic, hiding the logic from us. It would avoid us being pushed to distractions such as celebrity crime and sex.
Obviously better but the stories presented in our important concerns are still algorithmically chosen. There is no neutral news stream.
There are attempts in this direction, but they want to define neutrality for us, and still do not give us choices about the stories we would like to follow up.a relatively small amount of money could create this site.
