where do you get most of your news

The Onion

BBC. American news outlets are garbage; they only want your attention, and don't usually provide anything but opinion.

 

[lorenni]

Associated press app. We don’t have cable TV at home, and as others have said, cable news/yahoo/facebook etc are NOT news.

 

[Micca]

Strictly digital, no TV or print for news.

 

[portocall]

All over the place. I prefer dry news... Just the facts. I can make my own opinion. I don't have cable do I don't watch news Network television at all. I'm pretty good at bias detection so I always keep that in mind in anything I watch, read, or hear.

NY Times
Wapo
Daily Mail
NY Daily News
BBC
NPR
The Guardian
Mother Jones
ABC

My local paper online

I search around the internet regularly each morning to get a good read on things close and far. Anything from Facebook or Talk Radio is likely false.

I like my local news channel, 6ABC WPVI. It's a Philly channel and since I'm right over the bridge from there I watch that for stuff that happens locally and the weather. For national news, I read various news sites.

NPR, BBC, local

Same 3 here & sometimes this board if I haven’t had a chance to listen to the radio yet when something big has happened.

The internet
I can find news that totally agrees with me

 

[tcufrog]

NY Times, Washington Post, NPR, BBC World Service, local newspapers, Buzzfeed (most is crap but occasionally they have some good investigative pieces, Texas Monthly, Wired, Vox, Atlantic Monthly, news aggregate phone app (Flipboard) The Guardian, Slate

Most of my news? I'm drowning in news. I go through 30 local digital newspapers a day at work. I get a couple hundred e-mails a day, many of them official press releases from Police, Fire, Government Agencies and Businesses, I follow 194 official Twitter pages, and check a whole bunch of official Facebook pages. . Funny thing is, I rarely "see" the newscasts I am working on, I'm too busy working.

That sounds like when I was a librarian. I spent a lot of time reading about books and book reviews as well as ordering books and maintaining the collection. I rarely had time though to read the books I ordered. In fact, when I went home from work I was so tired of the written word I rarely read anything which surprised my husband. I didn't start reading for pleasure again until weeks after I quit my last librarian job.

NPR, BBC, local newspaper websites, reuters, google news.

 

[goofyintoronto]

I find twitter pretty good for news. I also find its best to check for traffic. Reddit is also good.

 

[Jennasis]

I watch the Today Show each morning as I'm getting ready for work but one of my favorite things to do is to toggle back and forth between CNN and FoxNews to see how they cover the same stories or what one considers newsworthy. They are usually wildly different.

I avoid the news like the plague. It’s too depressing and irritates the heck out of me.
