This was not my experience, my feed has been flooded by NYT and WSP stories. This normally wouldn't be a problem but these stories are often different takes on current events and the algorithm is bad serving related articles for these stories. The result is a feed full meta analysis about the news without the actual news.

> meta analysis about the news

aka "opinion" aka "blogging" aka "less expensive and more eye-catching than finding and reporting facts"

> What? This is certainly not my experience.

Your comment describes the experience to the tee.

> The top source is indeed Washington post but the same card also contains coverage from Mehr News Agency (which it highlights as "From Iran"),

Where are you from? In the NY area, all I see is US related. A couple of washingtonpost, a couple of nytimes, rolling stone, cnn, etc. Even in the expanded "view full coverage", I don't see mehr news.

> Reuters, The Hill, RollingStone.com, NYT (highlighted as "Opinion"), NEWS.com.au, and Associated Press.

So, no diversity? They all are essential one news agency masquerading as different news. Yes, even the australian source.

How about this, I wish I had better access to different echo chambers.

Reuters, The Hill, RollingStone.com, NYT (highlighted as "Opinion"), NEWS.com.au, and Associated Press along with the nytimes and washingtonpost are part of the same echo chamber. They all push the same message. I want to see what the other nations/regions are saying. I want different opinions/perspectives/news.

Not perfect, but at least it brings more viewpoints.

When even Reuters and Associated Press gets branded as echo chambers, a lot of people have ostensibly let fully go of objective reality.
