I try not to make up my mind unless I have to. I prefer to keep it open where possible. For this reason UK newspapers (for this is where I live and so cannot really comment outside of UK) make it difficult!
I tend not to read as much as I used to but get my news from various sources online. If I do read papers it will be Guardian possibly and Times to balance it out! I have read the Independent in the past.
I only read my stars in the tabloids. I know that sounds so snobby, but I am not interested in Big Brother, Paris Hilton, David Beckham or his scarecrow and I am quite sure I am not alone in this.

I appreciate this question, and I think we need to have our opinions clear and sharp about almost countless things that happen around us in our modern world of interconnectivity through a wide range of media sources. The affairs otherwise might stay jumbled into our heads to cause a mind-clog.
I realise that most of us do not have an active mental attitude toward processing information. We normally use our religious, cultural, national and regional biases to form an opinion about issues. I think alongside of doing this we should also try to take an active impartial stance about current issues and debates. We should take into consideration a wider range of media sources and standpoints if we ever bother to think about things.
Could this be an important skill that everyone should develop alongside other life skills? Thanks! Good call!

My mind isn't made up.
Since I know all men and women of Earth are liars.
It could never be made up on theis Earth.
All I have to trust in is the Holy Spririt and the bible.
Everything else is lies, point proven by the fact media
hides truth, politicians out and out lie and everyone else
will follow like lambs to the slaughter.
remember silence of the lambs?: and who ended the roman empire?
better wake up and make up your own mind
or your just brainwashed lambs.

Daily Mail, which forms some, but not all of my opinions.
Interesting choice though.

I make up my own mind, and I think, judging by the sorts of papers you two read, we would have many differences of opinion. Pretty sad that you have to read alarmist propoganda to form your opinions.

Uncontrollably, it depends what I read. Although realising this, I try to make my own judgements. Meanwhile the media dangerously wind their opinions into unknowing readers. Shame really...

I make up my own mind... I read, take all into account and make up my own mind to have my own opinion...
I do not evenlisten to critics regarding what they think about books, movies or music..
