Not me. I read Newsweek, scan the top five stories on my Yahoo homepage, and listen to the first five minutes of the national news on ABC radio, and read local papers that are part of Gannett once in awhile. The rest is just repeats or nonsense.
Since 9/11, the news has been transformed from a respected 1/2 hour or 1 hour of events to a sideshow of the worst things in the world, many times it is the same thing, over and over, and when listened to or watched constantly, can only make you angry and polarize you from other people, other races, other religions and other countries.
Add to that the stupidity factor of Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan and the like, and its just not worth it. The (very few) times I have watched national or even local news, the one I liked best was Katie Couric, because she has something good in each show.

People with half a brain who don't trust the media "watch" the news.
The rest of the viewers are just getting hypnotized into belief.
