Thanks for all the responses.

Well, of course there is one trustworthy source of truth ;) but it doesn't
specialize in today's headlines (or then again perhaps it does ;)

In any case, I took another look at news.google and perhaps it does about
as objective a job of presenting today's headline stories as any.  I
wasn't aware that google "tailors" news to our individual preferences. 
That's very interesting.

How does one specify an "incognito" mode, as Alan mentioned?  I'd really
like to be able to compare that to whatever is "tailored" for me.

I did notice (for the first time today), that they offer four different
format options:
Modern, headlines, compact, and classic.

I wish one could check a box beside articles that have been read so only
the titles would appear and nothing else.  That would make the overall
list of articles even more concise, but one could still go back to a
previously read article if desired.
