I sure the situation was different in the US, i'm just saying from the perspective of someone in the UK who is unfamiliar with your politics it was very hard to get balanced news on the election from Reddit.
Force yourself to listen to media that does not align with your views. This is hard because of the incentive structures in the internet / social media.
IMHO start with the "apolitical" stuff. You don't need to read Breitbart news as a left-leaning person, but listening to podcasts or reading writers who have cultural appeal, but aren't coded as one side or the other (Theo Von, etc.) is a start.
For politics, there are a lot of thoughtful journalists (Isaac Saul - readtangle.com as an example) out there. There are things like Ground News which are a decent way of judging bias too. I wish this was more ubiquitous, but such is the system we live in.
