Where do you go for news?

February 17, 2003 12:23:38 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
I usually rely on many source that I think really give me the honest news and not just a piece or sensational.

CNN
New York Times
Finanical Times
The Sydney Morning Herald
Washington Post
www.worldnews.com

and lastly the internet.

where do you get your news?

I usually don't... I've been to too many countries to keep up with all of them. It's a bit of a headache, really

I do not see how anyone could claim Fox news is balanced in the elast considering the CEO attempted to coach the president on how to press his agenda so it would gain broad acceptance

but then again, maybe it is just me

News? Hrm...

I go get actual printed copies of the NY Times and Washington Post every morning - I'd rather have nice printed pages in front of me than read it online, and then from time to time I find myself reading the Toronto Star - solely out of habit now.

News? What is news? Can't you tell I don't touch news too much. I was several weeks behind in our issue with the plastic and duct tape.

If I touch any news.. It has to catch my eye on my start page, which I use Lycos for.

I like reading the paper too. I love reading the NY Times. The Financial Times are a good read on the train to work...

I read the papers. In print that is. And I can see the news on Dutch, Belgian, German, English and French channels, plus CNN for the commercially invested bits (and potentially Spanish, Italian and Turkish too, but since I don't sepak those languages, that would be pointless).

Following feeds from different countries can help you show things from different angles.

My wife works in the news department of our local radio and television stations. I get the news directly from her, and she gets it from the wire services.
