Where do you get your news?

I'm just wondering if there are any news websites you guys check regularly. I'm unsatisfied with the local newspaper, CNN, MSNBC, and Foxnews, so I'm looking for alternatives.
 
mobile.reuters.com

I do not trust anyone else. Not saying they are perfect, but they are FAR more objective than everyone else out there. Even though they dont do all their own news, they are good about sifting through the bullshit. Also, I actually get news on their site as opposed to CNN which is now a multimedia Facebook of journalism.
 
ny times, washington post, and various blogs.

I used to read the wall st journal online too, but too much of their content is behind their pay wall to be worth bothering with anymore.
 
There's no ONE place for news these days. You got to compare and contrast. And take the blogs with a heavy grain of salt, which most posters here fail to do.
 
ABC Radio News is the best I've found, but I'm usually captive to whatever radio station I'm listening to, which includes radio versions of Fox, CNN, and CBS. I also hit Drudge pretty regularly, and less regularly Fox News, CNN, and the occasional alphabet. For foreign news I hit BBC and SkyNews.
 
The New York Times, NPR, the Washington Post, the BBC, Foreign Policy, the Global Security Newswire, plus a host of other sources of news and especially commentary which are all over the political spectrum from the National Review and Commentary to the Huffington Post and The Nation.

I used to get the print version of the Economist, which I greatly respect and miss, but it's too damn expensive. For quite some time after my sub ran out I had still had full access to their web site, but even their non-subscriber access is still worthwhile..

Like another poster said, you can't get all your news from just one source.
 
huffingtonpost is one of the newer news sites and i think its already one of the best. its like a spoofed up drudge. i like the nytimes, wsj, and google news. i used to read yahoo. i always read theregister and theinquirer as well

I have my ear to the ground and keep a running tab with the Reliable Source at the National Press Club.
