Where do you hear most of your news? I check a lot of different sites--BBC, NYTimes, the Oregonian, and the local newspaper site, and I occasionally watch the local TV news, as well as Countdown with Keith Olbermann. I also listen to NPR/OPB Radio every morning, and to All Things Considered most evenings. Robert Siegel and Michelle Norris have often kept me company while I cook dinner.
Do you read it in a printed newspaper? On Sundays, I get the local paper.
Do you tune in to a particular TV news show? Countdown with Keith Olbermann is not really a TV news show, more commentary, but his stories usually spur me to find out more about issues he brings up during his broadcast.
Do you listen to the news on the radio? Yes. NPR is often my choice when in the car, and it's usually on my home radio too
Maybe you hear all you need from friends? No, not really. I prefer to form my own opinion, which means doing my own legwork.
What are your favorite mainstream news websites? the NYTimes website, BBC News
What are your favorite alternative news websites? Probably Huffington
Do you find any that are particularly good for international news vs domestic news? BBC News is obviously a good choice for international news, and the NYTimes often leads me to other international news sites, usually papers in other countries, so I can get a variety of perspectives.
