The newspapers you mentioned both have a bias. The Walstreet Journal is notoriously conservative. The NY Times is notoriously liberal.

You can always read between the lines. The importance is that both of these papers have very good writers and can get to stories because their tendrils reach deep into the political soil, and they have so many foreign correspondents. Most papers just dont have the man power to go out a get basic information.
NY times has a great Science section also. They actually have people that know their stuff. Very comforting, to me anyway.
