with financial world occurencies happening so rapidly we find ourselves in absolute need of well informed, non bias, independent financial news source that can guide us and give us early warning and indications of what is happening. that source must not be under any entity's control and be on the same side as the reader. please, tell me what you use and why.

 I dont think current, daily, reactionary news is really the way to go for long term financial security. A better route would be learning sound financial investments. I'd look for books:

websites: www.motleyfool.com (although I find even it to be a little agressive with money) bonds seem safer.

Zerohedge, somewhat gold, silver bias but always timely and no room for BS ... and can find good links in the comments.

Acting man, good current commentary, sound fundamentals.

Seeking alpha, risk-takers looking for news edge but can be shaky (ignorant) on monetary fundamentals.

You need multiple sources. I check the BBC and the FT everyday, then Bloomberg.

I used to be a citizen and a taxpayer. Those days are long gone.

The most effective method I have found to cut thru the BS is to listen to everything and believe none of it. Examine the players, actions, and the motivations of the situation as you would a crime scene, motive, intent, means, opportunity, etc. In this way you can examine the most likely scenarios and examine trends on your own terms which will lead to further indication of intent thru patterns of actions. Obviously this is a lot of work, but it yields results.

i agree. but personally out of your own experience did you ever encounter the sources that are on the same side as you are - the reader? most information in nearly all news agencies is planted there by editors who need to keep their record straight. though as in zero hedge site the main blogger is pretty much analyses most information from multiple news sources and writes up a story explainging the behind curtin stuff for those who are less able to see the BS.
