only way to get unbiased news is from a source that doesn't have advertisers, so they can truly speak their mind and report on the real news.

No Agenda Show [1] (podcast) is pretty reliable source of information as they're 100% listener funded. They basically 'deconstruct' traditional news media, politics and world events and go above and beyond anything that will be ever produced by 'mainstream news'

The show is hosted by one of the 'founders' of podcasting.

What makes you think advertisers are the only bias? Listeners want to hear what they want to hear, too.

What does help is getting some news from outside the country. At least that will give you a different view.

(Eg I remember all the German newspapers blowing in the same direction about something Deutsche Bahn did a while ago, while only the Neue Zurcher Zeitung (from Switzerland) dissented.)

I would see the difference between a non-sponsored host openly displaying bias through their own opinions versus a sponsored host presenting a bias based on their advertisers.
