A broadsheet paper. In the UK I often chose The Guardian or The Scotsman, in the Netherlands I'd read Volkskrant or NRC and I usually combine what I read with what I see on television or read on websites. It's best not having a 'main news source' but instead having more than five regular and varied channels. It provides 'nuance': the ability to see things in perspective.
When a child murderer gets sentenced for example, I might read in the morning 'Metro' that a death penalty would have been more deserved. The Guardian might tell me over lunch that there were doubts about the case and the sentence is unusually harsh, while a foreign paper might scold the British courts because it could be a Dutch national who to the best of their knowledge was unfairly tried. Combine that with blasts of ITV news and the Beeb, and having a decent opinion - if not an extreme one - is quite likely.
Pity though there aren't too many sources left now that could be seen as independent enough. Also, widening your scope costs money (broadsheets are expensive, so are channel subscriptions) while dumbing down is cheap to do, and better regarded upon during lunch 'debates'.
