Default Good News Websites?

Well, I wake up this morning, make my coffee, look out the window and notice something. There is a world out there, go figure!

So anyway, I want to start keeping up with whats going on outside my own four walls, and most TV news sucks tremendous ***. I'm looking for good (and reliable too, if it's possible) sites on:

The Iraq War

General World News

Politics (World and U.S.A)

They don't have to be very big or very popular, I would just prefer that they be good and factual (As little propoganda as possible). Thanks in advance.

digg.com used to be tech only, but they have now spread out all over into different areas.
It still defaults on the tech section, but you can just go there and see what other areas they cover.

Most news sites are biased, if you knew korean that would help. Aljazeera international is pretty good, so is BBC, i wouldnt trust anything else.

FabianN's right, Digg is a really good source. If you want to be able to read a lot of sites without having to click a lot, I suggest getting the Wizz RSS 2.1.7 Firefox Addon. It has a great RSS reader, and when you first get it, it comes with a huge list of News sources.
