On a serious note, my family tends to watch Al-Jazeera English mostly these days. Because it's global news it tends to waste less time covering provincial stories like sex scandals, individual crimes, human interest pieces et cetera that are tedious and irrelevant, and instead tends to look at real issues that affect countries or the whole world. It has a little bit of a tendency to give more coverage to events in the Arab/Muslim world and are somewhat anti-Israeli, but nothing a quick look at the BBC or The Independent can't balance out. Besides, there is a lot going on there at the moment.
They also do very little in the way of 'Man in the Street', vox pops-style interviews and instead dedicate large blocks of time to talking to social philosophers, economists, politicians, and government workers in a really in-depth way that gives them time to properly express themselves, rather than just baiting them for soundbites.
I really do recommend giving it a look.
