No, there isn't. Because print news doesn't, just, compete with social media, it competes with games, with youtube and netflix and, yes, Facebook.
I realized some time ago that I only really need to know about specific news that is very local (impact <5 km from me at most) and global news. There is no newspaper that will only give me the first, and most give way too much news for the latter.
If you want something to cover local news, you are better of with an AI or a local Facebook group. For the global news, you can take you pick from any of the big media companies, they are pretty much identical.
