Since The Young Turks tend to get their information from certain mainstream sources, like The New York Times, they tend to be like the mainstream media.

 Where should they get their source material? Grit? The Globe?...Readers Digest?

I wish the Young Turks got more of their news from the New York Times. In my opinion, the vast amount you can learn from the NYT is not represented on TYT.

Huff Po

which I consider credible  

They have started a pool of journalists that are starting to create original content  so hopefully they will move away from being just a  news aggregater

I think we all listen to the show for Cenks insight, as well as everyone’s commentary and jokes. My only issue is when Cenk lets the mainstream media drive the news cycle and the framing of the news. He is way too good at what he does for that and it makes the show too commercial.

This is rebel headquarters for Pete's sake.

At least they don't have any reason to agree with the Republicunts or the DemocRATS.
