Reuters is a reliable world news agency. They report on everything from the stock market to the latest headlines of Iran firing nuclear missiles. Their stories are used by websites such as Yahoo to display accurate information to the world at large. Reuters is more reliable than the Atlanta Journal Constitution because it not only reports on the world's events but it also utilizes sources from all around the world. All these sources mean less room for falsification of stories.
Another house-hold news site is BBC. Like Reuters, they are concerned with reporting on current issues that affect the world at large. The AJC, however, is focused on reporting bullshit like the five most haunted hotels in Atlanta. Now to the AJC's credit, they try. They try to survive. They do everything they can to hold onto the few readers they have left, and its unfortunate that the editors believe people are actually interested in such shallow stories as the ones they report on. They simply cannot compete with these international news companies that not only have a bigger staff, but also a bigger budget. Money is what makes the world go 'round.
