I've kind of switched from my main source of info being mainstream media to it being following individuals, experts and other on twitter. Advantages:

- As individuals you kind of know what they know what their biases are

- You can follow all sides of the debates

- It's quicker by about 12 hours than the newspapers

You get to see the biases in the news when it breaks on twitter first and then you get the editorialised dumbed down version written up by journalists a few hours after. Obviously you have to be a bit selective about who you follow.
