I don't trust the media in the least. Looking at how the media is 'hiding' the single tie that binds the Canadian terrorists together is sickening. "broad strata of society" my ass. Because media is biased, I take from all sides then then trim out the insanity. I wrote Jewslikenews.com just to keep up with the Jewish related news and if I ever have another free second, I'll be adding more features to it. Besides JLN, I love hitting blogs that aggregate news. little green footballs, media backspin, slashdot, full as a goog, dailyalert.org, etc. Then I go to some specialty sites like Newsarama for comics. But that's all reading news. I don't listen to much radio except to wake up and that's just common news fodder. I don't watch much TV and I know that they do more than edit the news there so it doesn't make me want to watch it more than reading.
