I quit cold turkey a few months ago, and I've never felt better. It finally dawned on me that most of the articles were sensationalistic and one-sided, and they have no sense of clarity in journalism. Plus I remember reading one site that talked about how one of the main moderators pretty much blocked stories and banned people who would disagree with his p.o.v. That and reading the comments can really warp your mind -- people are modded up if others agree with their comments, not necessarily if they are correct or not.
The problem that I have with slashdot is that they will publish anything and everything no days. I guess their stated topic ("news for nerds, stuff that matters") is broad in itself, but things were a little more focused when I started reading.
