I use Reddit's Worldnews subreddit /r/worldnews for a nice crowdsourced news source. It will often contain breaking news at incredible paces.

The news agency Al Jazeera in English is an amazing news source. They stream 24/7 and it's free to watch. Very daring journalists whom approach the happenings moreso than most other agencies. Very rarely biased.

Google News, while old, is still quite good.
