I can't listen to any news on the radio here(Jellico, Tn) during the
day. None of the two or three fm stations available here do any news.
I don't pay for the local crappy cable, so I can't watch it on the idiot
box. I check out the Drudge Report several times a day. Then I'll take
a look at the Daily Telegraph, the Daily Mail, the Sun, the Register,
the Jerusalem post and the Melbourne age. Sometimes I'll put on kfyi for
news. Then there is the news on channel 10 or 15. If any of the others
stream their news broadcasts please let me know. If I want news and a
bit of humor to go with it, fark.com is where I go. Although it is
available online, the financially troubled Arizona Republic doesn't
appeal to me.
How's that?

I have the same issues so look at multiple source (none in print) but
I've been using BBC of late for real life news even though that
doesn't get a lot of stateside or local coverage. I don't think the
question was about tech news.

Which news sources (print and/or internet) do y'all prefer?
I'm fed up with *all* media sources ... with all of the bias
(both ways),
spin, distortion, inflammation, exaggeration, ambulance chasing
sensationalizing, and overdone visual graphics.
Haven't subscribed to any print media for more than 20 years,
but used to
scan the USA Today headlines online; however, since they just
changed
their format to force an excessive (imh) clutter of graphics
on us, it is
no longer a viable option for me.
Are there any online news headline sources that are not
radical, liberal,
left-wing, extremist, fanatic, spinmeisters? ... or (almost as
bad)
extreme right-wingers?
I've tried all those listed at this link and found nothing
that seems
reasonably "fair and balanced" ... and most of all *efficient*
without
excessive clutter.
