It used to show a page with wrong-sized images, but at least you could read the headlines and click into the articles.

Now it just has the text "Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker"

Please feel free to share links to any decent news sites still out there with global coverage, that aren't too biased, and let you browse without JavaScript.

lite.cnn.com doesn't need javascript. "decent" and "biased", of course, depends on your perspective.

It still works kinda-okay-ish for me. Perhaps because I'm using Privacy Badger to block cookies? (Using FF, NoScript, and a US internet connection, FWIW.)

Most paywalled sites are going JS heavy lately and only showing partial content.

Looks like they want only subscribers read full article.
