Butch Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 (edited) Hard to find a decent website that is impartial these days. I tend to look at the Bangkok Post website or occasionally The Nation for general news, and Pattaya Mail online for Pattaya, and Tommy's Fab103, although the Pattaya Mail site is very brief and doesn't go into much detail on any of the stories, Fab 103 (or Always Pattaya) is very detailed. The Thaiger is OK, but is basically recycled news articles scraped from other websites and re reported, plus I don't go a bundle on either of the reporters. Anyone got a reliable and relatively up to date source or link they wish to share? Edited May 30, 2021 by Butch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chappo Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) not found a really decent news site in Thailand - i want more details and more information, not just a 2 minute read. i do listen to 103fm each morning for Tommy's brief. Like if you look at the ST( Singapore Times) - their news is very detailed and give a good 5 mins read. English Thai news is very shallow...

What a mess! I also have the App for Bangkok Post which if anything is even worse because of all the adverts which make it virtually unuseable. I invariably log into Fab103 on U-Tube each day. Then I phone Terry Lee. 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
