Where do you get your news?

[KiteEatingTree]

Which online, television, newspaper, and/or town crier sources do you use daily/weekly to get your news? Also which news sources do you purposely avoid?

 

[Fletch]

Google News
Drew Curtis' FARK.com
Reason Magazine
Ludwig von Mises Institute - Homepage

I can't stand to watch television news, or read most newspapers/magazines. I hate simplified, watered-down BS that passes for "analysis" or "debate" in such media.

INGO!

 

[WHAT HAPPENED]

GLENN BECK

 

[LPMan59]

i watch the local news, read CNN and occasionally watch CNN and Fox.

D.U. 180..

I watch cable news and Read AP on Yahoo. Then I take the events they talk about and go to multipule websites to get the full picture. No certain ones, just whatever is covering that paticular story. Also skimming through other forums can sometimes yield good results too.

I never rely solely on blogs nor do I visit many at all. I never get my news from blogs period.

Also, overseas news sources yield excellent results on USA foriegn policy affairs, UN event and sessions, and world events. Of course.

 

[Glockster]

My everyday routine after work:

5:00 Fast Money CNBC
6:00 Glenn Beck Fox
7:00 Lou Dobbs CNN
8:00 Bill O'Reilly Fox

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

 

[Huzrjim]

Mostly online: Foxnews, Drudge, Newsmax
When I watch TV - Fox only (Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly)

Sometimes flip to MSNBC for laughs!

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Eeehhww...it's still stuck to your chin

 

[Dryden]

I stopped watching ABC, CBS, CNN, and NBC about a year after 9/11.
I stopped reading any newspaper about 2 years after 9/11.

So, it's just FOX, Rush, and random internet sites.

Sometimes CNN and MSNBC cover things that Fox doesn't. If you don't monitor them from time to time you'll miss it. Also, it's good to know what your enemies are up to...

The voices in my head do a good job of keeping me informed.

I have never had pay tv: cable/dish stuff. I will watch over the air NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. But frankly I get mad usually when I watch. I want more news of human stories not so much divisive headlines. I can get that 24/7 at any instant. Usually choose not to.

Now that I see some of yours, I will look for podcasts. I know Fox News has some. It's just the ones I've had before were a bit too much/frequent.

 

[El Cazador]

You're certainly asking some pointed questions in here. First about the meaning of "bear arms" and now this one...

ETA; I missed one. "Describe past Presidents since... in one word".

New poster, three threads, no participation, all in 2nd Amend. & Politics. Not curious requests, but questioning...

 

[Dryden]

Now you got me thinking. And that not always good.
I think I'll keep an eye on that kite eating tree.
