I get news from internet and from The Economist magazine.
I don't like watching TV period. In fact I never watch TV, whether for news, or anything else.
I might get news from radio, but they only play like 30 second headlines on the radio.
The internet is more convienient, and less annoying. TV news basically yells things at you and plays them over and over again, looking for ratings.
On the internet, you can glance at the headlines, and if it doens't interest you, you don't have to read it. if you want to research the news story further, you can almost instantly check numerous sources to see if it's true.
You can also look up older stories that you want to follow up on.
In other words, with the internet, you can get as much or as little news as you want, when you want, and it's a lot more quiet and less annoying.
Newspapers are basically dinosaurs and i never ever read them.

I get my news from English language short wave broadcasts and from reading the web editions of two domestic newspapers and eight foreign newspapers each day in English.
I have been a faithful listener of shortwave radio since 1949 and consider myself to have been an aural witness to some of the more historic moments for nearly six decades.
I avoid cable and broadcast TV news because they are mostly headline services and the news is being read by people who belong to the same trade union as Jay Leno, David Letterman and Jimmy Kimmel. I've also found that, in most cases, "breaking news" is "faking news", filled with inaccuracies and devoid of any depth.
I can still recall (with great glee) a panel of "experts" on one cable TV news show. The "anchor" hosting the discussion turned to one of the panelists and said:
"Would you care to speculate on those assumptions?".

Glen Beck on CNN. Fox News, Internet. Very seldom watch ABC, CBS, NBC unless trapped in motel without cable. Much to depressing and from some country I am not familiar with. I guess it might be the country of New York City. ertainly not the USA.

Newspaper, Radio, Televion, Internet news letter are sources of getting news. But I think Newspaper is because it covers more local/regional news. Internet news letter creating junk

Majority frm FOX news, NWCN (news channel in Pacific Northwest) and local papers, net, and radio news.
I avoid NBC, ABC, CNN, NY times, Boston Globe, and USA Today. Can't believe a damn thing Liberals say.

It's honest, has good writers, has a christian slant and it's very accurate. (This is true nearly always)
The sources I avoid are those that always lean to the left. They never tell the other side. Those include ABC< NBC< CBS< CNN

Any news will do.
Different news.
Have different ways of communication.
Just pass-by and take a peek.
When there's time for it.
Sometime twinkle twinkle little star came passing-by.
