Where do you get your news?

[rainbabies]

mostly the internet. FOX's website and CNN.

i cannot stand watching the news on most days...they just dwell on the same thing over and over.

sometimes i watch o'reilly and after i go to bed, anderson cooper...especially when he has specials on darfur/sudan and the FLDS/warren jeffs.

Here. Links from blogs and other social sites I'm on. NPR when I'm in the car, sometimes. Wait, wait, don't tell me, which we listen to the podcast of pretty regularly.

No newspaper, no TV news. I've debated subscribing to "The Week", to help stay informed, but haven't bothered yet.

Mostly the internet or CBC radio while I get the muffins off to school in the morning.

I can't stand TV news and don't watch it. Usually NPR depending on which kids are in the car and what is on the radio and internet headlines. And here.

Apparently, I should talk to my 90 year old neighbor more often. We just had an interesting conversation about Africa and my geography is rusty.

Our daily newspaper and Newsweek, and headlines on Yahoo that I skim really fast en route to checking my email. I hardly ever watch the news on television anymore.

The Week is great. We also get Newsweek and the Economist. I get the daily newspaper.....and check internet headlines.

And there's always Jon Stewart.

And there's always Jon Stewart.

We don't get that channel but I always catch up on line. That show is a big check mark in the pro column for expanded cable.

The morning paper for local news. The Washington Post online for former local news (i.e. real estate) and of course the national news. CNN except they've annoyed me. MSN occasionally. The Army Times because of the (obvious) expanded military coverage. The Print version the Post Weekly edition.

Slate.com just for the Explainer.

NPR in the car. In DC I also listened to the local "traffic on the 8s" news radio because it's pretty critical in DC if you're in your car to have at last two backup routes planned out.

I hate TV news- I watch the late news only for the weather reports and then it's off.

Mostly NPR. I'm in my car alot. Occasionally we watch Keith Oberman.

And there's always Jon Stewart.

Although by the time I get to Stewart and Colbert I've already gotten the skinny.

...probably these sources will not surprise anyone

NPR, Newsweek, Jon Stewart, and the occasional Today Show. I also check msnbc.com and cnn.com from time to time.

And, for something heard on NPR about news, sources, and general knowledge of the American public

It could be time to move ....

Christian Science Monitor, NPR, PBS News Hour, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, local paper...the TV channels w/ the exception of PBS are sporatic. The Sunday morning news shows are when I usually hit the other channels.

I used to enjoy it when I lived in the burbs of Detroit in that we got the CBC news regularly...Canadians seem way more even keeled, and it was refreshing to see the world through their eyes vs. always through ours...journalistic-ly speaking that is.

duh..I forgot...the internet!

[GrayMatterWife]

Internet: FoxNews.com, drudgereport.com, humanevents.com, occasionally msnbc.com. Print: WSJ, New York Times, Dallas Morning News. TV: FoxNews (usually "Special Report" with Brit Hume at 5:00 PM CT), Bloomberg, sometimes CNN. Never ever the local news (akkk!) or the Big Three 5:30 PM CT weeknight broadcasts (so bad...).

But I am on strike from all TV news right now. The coverage of the V-Tech situation is absolutely nonstop, to the point where it feels exploitative. And it scares my son to see that kid with the guns.

NPR mostly, Frontline and local news - no cable here

A little bit of everywhere.
