Best source for fair and non-biased daily news on the web?

I can't seem to find one site that aggregates fair and balanced news. What are some of the best sites to get a "real" report - reporting the facts, not the opinions of the news service reporting them?
Tip for best answer: M$2.62
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

That's a hard one. I find myself looking at the Huffington Post and Fox News and figuring the truth lies somewhere in between and just to see what everyone else is reading. But as far a close to the middle I would rate these three.

1. NPR Which I have on my twitter feed. You get that their stories they cover tend to lean left, but they make an attempt to shoot straight like so few try to do now.

2. BBC News They are good for international but expect a little bit of Chicken Little with their headlines.

3. Reuters Good straight wire feeds with a business focus with sometimes differing opinion over there.

I don't know if it is possible to make a non-biased news website. Most websites I know are in some way more or less left or right leaning.

My favorite website is http://www.rawstory.com/
The website covers American local, international and economic news. Their own investigative pieces are usually really interesting

Wikipedia describes it as a "left-leaning news, politics and weblog"

A lot of news sites take their stories from news wires and then add their spin. news wires include Reuters, AP, AFP, etc., are probably best for unfiltered news.

I'll plug Al - Jazeera's international site which does very good reporting on a number of issues as well.

One of the ways I find that I feel like I get the best news is to utilize the the news from foreign news services. So, if you are looking for news about the US that isn't slanted as much as Fox News or the New York Times, try looking at the BBC. The stories tend to be a little shorter (also shorter on opinion) and may even feel a little dry (especially if you are used to a site like CNN.com), but they seem to stick more to just the facts.
