Which do you prefer -- comedy TV, like the Soap or the Daily Show? The radio, for listening to on-the-go? Magazines that catch your eye just before leaving the store, or a good read that you're subscribed to? Or do you follow a newsfeed on the internet?
Do your news sources swing right-wing, left-wing, or keep a balance? If you decide to vote, and wouldn't mind sharing, then please explain your preference and give examples. 3nodding Then I'll share mine.

I said Radio but I including internet radio on that list as radio. SOme radio sources in some parts of the country are good, like we have a female radio dj out here who is as Libertarian as an Anarcho-Capitalist is for Laissez Faire as you can get.

Haha. Is the DJ you're talking about local, or is she from the internet radio you mentioned? I have yet to listen to very opinionated DJs (besides the typical talk show hosts on pop & rock radio stations), although I have a feeling that most DJs around here are liberal.
Then again, most everyone around here is liberal... including our government office and our local papers. gonk

Personally, I don't trust ANY news source, but there are a few I'm particulare to. I watch the Daily show, the Colbert report, and Glenn Beck. The only news source I really trust is LP.org, and they aren't exactly reporting everyday, nor on all the top stories.

The only "news sources" I actually care for are The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, because they show the world of politics for what it really is: utterly idiotic. Plus, they're funny as hell.

I enjoy The Colbert Report more than the daily show, for TV.
But for other satirical, or just funny takes on the news, Current TV is a good channel when it is talking about the news anyway.
For internet, any international newspaper or PhillyD vlogs. MSNBC along along with Cuny TV for Television news (without the funny). For the radio NPR.
Wish I kept up with it all more. NPR I definitely listen to the least. I only get to hear it at my father's who shares that same taste, otherwise the only time I'm around a radio is in the car with my mother and that's never on a talk show. D:

Like High Assassin, I don't really trust any news source. When I do watch the news, I tend to go for the international brodcasts on PBS, namely NHK Newsline and DW News, sometimes followed by BBC America, though since it is the American Branch, I don't trust it quite as much as the other two. For local news, I prefer newspapers.You can't update, censor, or edit a piece of paper once it's been printed, so they have to get it right the first time. Also, by the time a paper is printed, the story is hours old, and there has been some time to fact check what you're putting out there. Internet news can be updated/censored in a matter of minutes, and T.V. News can air one version of a story, then change it later, or not air it again if it doesn't meet with the liberal agenda. I can't tell you how many store robberies / armed shooter stopped by private citizens with guns stories I've seen, because they will give about 30 seconds to a minute to that story, and then never mention it again. If you're not watching the news at that exact instant, you'll miss the story altogether. With newspapers, what you see is printed, and somewhat permament once it's set to paper. It will be the same story next week, next month, next year even. That provides a level of accountability that other news sources just don't have.
