Seeing as every source has its own bias.
I've become fond of the guardian since they outed the NSA. I also listen to NPR, but sometimes have to change the channel because they oversimplify and/or *really* slant things (they're liberal as hell, which is fine by me, but the blatant slanting can be obnoxious).
I have a friend who says he gets everything from reddit.

From all over the internet.
I don't read newspapers or watch TV anymore. I get angry every time I mistakenly do it. Try one month without TV and newspapers and you will most probably react in the same way.

That's classified information. You are now a person of interest.

I listen a lot when I am driving to an all news station out of NYC at home i read a lot of different news sites across the political spectrum. I also like Google News because it links to so many sources for the same story if one seems a bit slanted you can check another and compare them which is what I often do

I've gone longer than that without. :P
Or do you mean, you don't read anything on the internet that's an electronic form of a newspaper?

It happens that I do. I usually get as angry as when I read a "real" newspaper.
I try to avoid everything that is politically correct, which is hard, since most media in Sweden are like they were in the Soviet Union.

Getting my news from various sources, when gathering news. There are times I do opt for ignoring it all though.
It helps that my country has dozens of political parties, makes that there will be comments from all kinds of POV on almost every bit of news. Knowing the "colour" of the source helps too, to read more critical.
And, there is the application of logic, on what is written.
Funny example was what I read in a paper the other day, about vegetarians having 12% less of mortality, compared to non vegetarians. ........ And it isn't even April 1.
Lots of journalist just mix up some data into a saucy piece of text, without understanding what they are writing about.

All over the place. The radio. The web. The TV. There are a few sites I always check because I want opposing views and I know that these will only rarely agree on anything. And there are sites I check depending on the news I want to know more about.

I was talking to trigger right there, but i'll make an effort to post more news, man. I haven't been able to FB as much in an effort to keep up with math, plus some other IRL shit.

I have been/am trying to force myself to avoid the huffington post, even when they use clickbait. They're so stupid they make me angry, almost every article.

They are the anti FOX news and as about as reliable.

Weather.gov is the only news site any US citizen really needs. Everything else is garbage. :orly:

Was just recently saying that I think I missed my calling in meteorology. Making six figures to hypothesize while fully expected to be wrong sound like something I could be really good at. :laugh:

I could have been one. I studied physics and it was a career option for the more practically-minded among us.
I would have been awesome at it.

Indeed.
Don't watch tv so never know what the weather is supposed to be. Just let people bore me with weather chitchat instead.

For TV I use either Channel 4 or BBC One.
For newspapers I would read the Observer, and maybe (for a good laugh, not as serious news) The Daily Mail
But I get the majority of my news online, and for that I'd use the BBC News website and/or The Channel 4 news website.
