Another news source is the Brittish newsmagazine THE ECONOMIST.
It is available by subsciption from a US address, but it is expensive
~$100/yr.

While its editorial viewpoint is decidedly Tory, and there is plenty of
opinion intersperced(sp?) in the articles, it is made quite clear what
is an opinion, and what is news.  And one thing it has is plenty of
good hard news.  When you compare it to TIME or NEWSWEEK, it shows them
up for the pap filled picture magazines that they are.
