What I get most frequently is NPR radio, Morning Edition and All Things Considered , Fresh Air , On the Media,etc.... I like the music there too.
This is not the most frequent sorce because it is especially good for news, but because I can listen while I work and it is the best availible on the radio.
I watch some Fox News in the evening , often while I am typing on line buliten board posts.
I use Google a lot , which of course throws me onto Wicipedia a lot. But Google is an easy way to find the polar opinions on the two (or more) sides of a question.
AS I think about it I don't really search up BBC all that often , but I hold it in especially high reguard for its long history of responsible reporting , so I do resort to the BBC as a default when everything elese seems unreliable. Msnbc is on my homepage just for cconvienience I suppose.
Hufpo is fun and I go there when I am in a mischevious mood, precicely because they are highly biased and unreliable . I havent been to Drudge in a while Drudge takes risks and scoops the rest now and then, but that the news is very fresh doesn't appeal to me , I would just as soon have a well aged set of facts that has been challenged many times .
Al Jezeera is a promising up and comer , once in a while I check them out but I don't make a point of it very often, only when the question is middle eastern and I don't feel that the western oriented press has been adequite.
I have had to do a bit of self examination to find this about myself , far and away my most frequent web crawl is origionateing on Debategate from where I follow links and Google for additional sorces.
My second most frequent web crawl is exploration of the internets enoumous cartoons page.
My third most common web search origionates with my job, trade magazines that are work related and topics of scientific intrest or articles in Discover Magazine and Scientific American.
Hmmm....Bible gateway now and then.
Hmmmmm.... I might ought to reverse these in order.
Thanks MT ,once again ,you assist me to live an examined life.
