If you’re going to look at Fox News and write it off because ‘it’s so blatantly partisan’ or ‘it’s nothing but a propaganda channel’, can you really come back and listen to this? This is identity politics for the left - it’s not a news source. If you have a differing opinion, you’re not welcome. I personally despise Fox News, and this has similar vibes that there’s one opinion, and that is the only opinion.

“All the news, to keep you rooted.” Erica Cruz Guevara and company offer great local, Bay Area journalism. From the North Bay to the South, from the Town to the City, I hear stories that are trending like Oakland’s homeless or the recent South Bay ballot measure for a no-caste vote. But more often I hear journalism from the fringe, like environmental impacts at Richmond’s refinery, or LGBTQ+ issues. The journalism is imbued with local analysis from both sides of the fence, and eye toward equity and injustice(s). If you like NYTimes’ The Daily, you’ll enjoy The Bay; a deep, humane dive into leading issues around The Bay. Thanks!
