What's your major source in receiving the latest news? I prefer either newspaper or television, they're very quick. I usually just use the internet if I need to get more information on it.

What about you guys?

For celebrity gossip, definitely the internet, the big stuff's on the front page of Yahoo! rolleyes.gif I'm actually serious about that, too.

But for actual news, I watch the five o'clock local news almost daily for at least half an hour and then another half hour for world news at six. If I don't watch for a week, I feel so behind, like I need to catch up. shrug.gif About once a week I grab the newspaper available at school and read an article that caught my eye, but it's usually something local.

I hear most things from people, manly my dad or my sister. Sometimes I watch the news, and sometimes I read the newspaper.
I also look online occasionally.


So, basically, everywhere except the radio. hahaha

I once was very into news, since I was sort of a frequent poster in a political oriented forum. Newslink was one of the tools I used to gather global news fast, although later on I narrowed the search to a few major sources.

Nowadays I either check the Washington Post site or else the BBC site, and depending on what I read I move one way or another. 90% of my news come from the internet, actually. I have almost practically shunned the TV and radio.

I don't get it from other people. I'm usually the one to tell them. laugh.gif
I like to read the New York Times, but sometimes I don't have time to. I usually just watch CNN and NBC and NY1 in the morning and evening. And log onto news.bbc.co.uk when I have the time to.

Hahaha me too. I usually get updated on the news from TV, but if I'm already online, I'll check it out there.

I usually read the newspaper too, so there too.

Online/TV. We cancelled our subscription for the Daily News so I don't read the newspaper that much.

Sometimes when my mom's watching the news, I stay for a bit and see if there's anything interesting. But I also get some news from Yahoo, which is my home page. And yeah, I get it from other people, too.

My parents practically force me to watch the news. Especially if it's about rape.

If you REALLY want to know what's going on in the world,
you'll watch news that isn't America-biased.

The newspaper, although if there's something really serious, or something I'm really interested in, I'll watch the report on the news as well.

I read the newspaper nearly every day, and I watch the news in the morning before school. I don't usually read news articles online.
