Online news is my thing....i only read the papaer if there is something of interest i've heard about

TV news i rarely get to see...never through the week and only occassionally on weekends

For me online is more convenient

Every weekday morning I watch the early morning local news and then part of Good Morning America. I read the local paper just about every day, though I usually scan the paper for anything the tv might have missed or anything I want to delve into deeper. Each time I sign online I read the headlines that pop up on my start page and then hit fark.com for a humorous, offbeat digest of the days news. After moving to the country, and thus losing cable, I do miss the news channels somewhat, but tend to check the online versions regularly.

I'll start by saying I don't follow the news as closely as I'd like. I generally puruse two "local" tv stations websites for the news, daily. I get a WSJ dropped on my desk daily after my boss is through with it, which is generally after his lunch. But unless he makes a point of a must read article I generally don't get a chance to read it. I try to catch the nightly news at 10 each night, but am not always successful.

I guess this is my confession time ... most any news I get is usually second hand ... someone mentions it to me or I get emailed the occasional article, or items I read here .... I've never been that big of a NEWS fan I guess.

I try to keep the outside world at bay...watching a 1/2 hour of nightly news makes me wanna open a vein...tho I used to be a NPR junkie, even that got to be too depressing for me to tolerate...I only keep taking the newspaper for the comics...

I listen to CBC in the morning. Local news on the 1/2 hr and on the hour is national and internation new.

I read both the BBC and CBC web sites for more indepth news.

I buy a news paper on the weekends.

I also have a few trade/intrest sites that post new stories from around the world. These sites are generally very narrow in scope.
