Al Jazeera English and BBC International.
I don't really trust any of the US news channels. Frankly US news to an outsider sounds like raw propaganda most of the time (and that is aimed at the so called "non-bias" news channels in the US, not just Fox News and MSNBC). And the rare times they aren't spreading propaganda, they're seeding fear into the population.
The only decent source of news coming from the US is a handful of newspapers and comedians (e.g. Daily Show, Last Week Tonight, etc).
