Where do you get your News?

I like to stay well read about current events and international stuff but I am always looking for better/ different types of sources
Mainly I just use Google news as they compile the most results from the most sources.
Every now and then I will check BBC news but they are worse than CNN.

I prefer FOX News for their fair and balanced news coverage. Watch a real news station hippy.

During the day I get AP wire updates on my phone. When i take a shit i usually read those articles. At lunch I've gotten in the habit of watching cnn. In college I read several newspapers everyday (NY times and wsj primarily, plus AZ republic and the state press too). I still like to get news from the ny times. I also have a subscription to TIME magazine, which i really like.

What is surprising is that you read the news.

Forget about the naysayers from the 80s.
CNN is hands down (currently) the most solid journalist network.
Reuters is probably second, maybe abcnews or msnbc.
CSPAN is loooooooong way to get news and only some of it.

I read the State Press, that is awful. It's nice because it at least lets you know headlines of what is going on but the actual writing is horrific. Got to love that Police Beat section though (You are talking about the ASU Newspaper right?)
I think they have NY Times outside of W.P Carey for free!

Yeah, they do! I was talking about the ASU student newspaper, it was always good for a laugh and to see what's what on campus. And inside the honor college campus they have free WSJ and NY Times, that's how i got to read it everyday for free. Mind you that was up until 2005.

I don't know what the fuck is going on anymore. I just know money is a bitch and there will always be suffering in the world no matter how informed I am. I don't even check the weather reports...
