La Nación, Perfil, and most of the media picked here belongs to conservative oligarchs and concentrated mass media that really hurts our democracy. Damn, La Nación is even knee-deep in human rights violations and torture to obtain paper for their bloodstained newspaper.
WHY IS THAT ON FEDIFOLLOWS.

Hey there, thanks for getting in touch.
Apologies, I'm not Argentinian, so it's really important that people let me know if I've messed up on listing something.
I try to screen out authoritarian news sources before listing. The English-language Wikipedia pages for these made them sound like very average mainstream news sources, and they are some of the few to have active RSS feeds.
If you could point me towards a better source for checking Argentinian media I'd appreciate it.

I've removed all the accounts you mentioned from the thread.
If there are alternative news sources you would recommend for Argentina please also let me know, I can try to see if any of them have active RSS feeds.
(RSS allows website feeds to reach the Fediverse.)

About La Nación, and why it is very important not to mirror their content in the Fediverse, here's a non-Argentinian source that sheds some light about what I said regarding human rights violations. But it's not just an isolated case of kidnapping and torture; the media was always the herald for the conservative oligarchy, the authoritarian, and even the mafia.
Perfil, Misiones Online, and several others are just subsidiaries, not independent media. They all, more or less, replicate the same voices: those of the Establishment.
As for alternative voices, let me check if I can compile some with at least RSS. Not a lot, and the few that still survive don't have presence in the Fediverse AFAIK.

I can check for RSS if needed, I just need a list of media outlets to check. It's much more difficult to judge things in a language I do not speak natively, which is why it's particularly useful to get feedback like this.
They don't need Fedi accounts, they just need an active RSS feed as this can be converted into a Fediverse feed.
RSS feeds aren't always advertised, that's why it's better to just give a list of media outlets.
Misiones is bad too? I'll remove that now as well.

I'll leave here the original URLs for the media, ordering from more mainstreamy to lesser known. If I find a native Fediverse account, I'll add their @ here too.
- Página/12
- El Diario AR
- Revista Cítrica
- Indymedia Argentina
- Pájaro Rojo (it has a temporary SSL issue).
- FM Reconquista (mostly a FM radio, but it also has a blog).
- La Colectiva Radio
By the way, here's a far better and comprehensive listing of all of our alternative media, already ordered by significance.
