Depends what you're after I guess. I still like the BBC for decent coverage, and Sky News are pretty good, but I guess you have to put up with the Yank version, so bang goes objectivity. www.bbc.co.uk/news if you want a look.

There really is no such thing as objective news.

However, in my mind the very best global news source is by far and wide The Economist. They have a lot of editorial coverage but it is consistently insightful and balanced.

I have to agree with this.

As johnnyrod I think BBC is quite good.
