Which News Sources Do You Like?

[Wildman]

NICE !! i love books and have about 400+, 11 bibles and 30+ books on religion, faith and spiritual inspiration.

Fox News is my most "GO TO", but i do sometimes check out the liberal commie news sites.., which is every one other than FOX NEWS . com

 

[LoudMcCloud]

Drudge Report is the most visited news website in the World

drudgereport.com

I asked which news source do you like.

Do you read Drudge or did you just throw that out there? Who says it's the most visited news website in the world anyway?

Drudge Report is my favorite site because it is current and reliable; plus it has links to hundreds of other nationally known news sources. I prefer the printed news to the televised because I can read much faster than the typical reporter can talk. Additionally, I am able scan the news and read only what I find interesting, whereas I have to listen to a bunch of irrelevant nonsense if I am watching a TV news program.

Why don't it you research it? You dont seem to believe me. lol. Go kick rocks.

 

[Sallow]

Sorry - what is 1010?

AM Radio.

I listen to it on the way to work..and back.

Is that like an 'all news' radio talk channel? Who's do you listen to?

It's straight news.

Just the way I like it. No commentary.

anyone who claims only ONE news station tells them the truth are brainwashed fools

 

[SanTropez]

Ah, now that's my type of place!

I like my "news" well matured and complete though the benefit of time and scholarship.

We typically call that "news" history..

History is fine; but for breaking news, it's outdated. Need to keep up with the facts as they develop, which much of the time is ongoing and spread out all over the place.

I like straight news, no commentary too, most of the time. Sometimes I want to hear specific 'experts' takes on what they think. But have to flip all over the place to find those guys, and it's hit or miss. Some 'expert' who may have been a regular on one channel all of a sudden disappears and I don't see them again........until I surf and find that person waaaaaaaaaaaay over there on that other channel months later. gggrrrr

Nothing better than a personal library, eh? I couldn't tell you how many books I have or had. I just keep buying them, new - used and every other variety (except I LOATHE those electronic readers like Kindle, etc!).

 

[SanTropez]

I generally stick to the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. All of television news is utterly worthless. I also spend a lot of time online reading news reports. I think there's an element of bullshit in virtually every form and source of media.

You're right, every news source has its own biases for sure. Reading online is good as you'll generally get a better cross-section.

You've got that right about printed news (online). I can read faster than listening to a news loop saying the same ole'-same ole' over and over too. I may hear something initially on televised news, but then go right to the Internet to find out additional details and what other facts are out there early on. Those news loops drive me crazy, lol.

I read two newspapers (lib & con) and listen to Charles Krauthammer's analysis on FNC Special Report. He reminds me of Henry Kissinger explaining foreign policy to novices.

Krauthammer's a damn genius - he's got degrees in Economics & History, then went on to get his Medical Degree from Harvard.

Anything - cable news, network, online media: name your favorites and why.

I listen to both lib and conservative channels sparingly, often switching back & forth. Mostly I read stuff online from overseas: BBC, Channel NewsAsia, NPR, UPI, AP. Always check Al Aribiya, AlJazeera, The Australian, West African News, etc. All sources are biased, so try to keep the sources open & flowing, unless it gets too wacko, then I disconnect.

How about you?

Do you guys watch CNN, Fox, BBC, or...................?

during the Boston bombing

i did not listen to or watch one national news channel

everything i heard

came from the use of the internet to gain access to

police scanners

local on the scene live reporting

and message boards

Hey Jon - if you were using police scanners, you must have been local to the area, right? You up near Boston or vicinity? Those probably were alot more informative.

Message boards, huh? Those could be good if people are online monitoring news real-time. I like Internet news too, especially scanning headlines on Google news because if stuff hits the Net, Google gets it almost immediately.

Charles Krauthammer is indeed the most brilliant man on television today.

actually i live in South Dakota

my Kindle has a national scanner app

plus some folks from the area put live Boston area scanners up on ustream

yes it was very informative

plus via the net i was able to watch local on the scene reporting unedited

the message boards helpful in directing interesting spots

for me this is the only way to go

it was quite an eye opener for me on the power of the internet

long may it live

and tax free ta boot

I like Fox News because IMO they are more honest than any of the other news channels.

BBD: I flip through to Fox sometimes too, but they are at the top of the list hated most by left-wing liberals. Just sayin', don't shoot the messenger! That's why I want Jeremiah's url link so I can see who published that list he posted.

I've heard DOOSIES on both ends - on CNN, couldn't believe some of the crap I heard out of Lemon and Fareed Zakaria, and the other day I wanted to choke Geraldo Rivera and O'Rielly!
