I kind of take from a little bit of everything I guess. When I first get up and I'm puttering around with coffee and a cigarette I usually turn on the 24/7 stuff just to see what kind of big stories are kicking around and to at least stay current when I don't have time to look elsewhere. When I do have the time I try to get through the local paper and poke around online for real news...I maybe do that 2-3 times a week.
I do notice a shocking lack of relevant news on the 24/7s to the point of wondering why I bother to turn them on at all. Usually it seems to amount to incredibly shallow news about whats going on in Washington mixed with ridiculous sensationalism and rating grabber human interest stories (forget about international news unless is a MAJOR story). I find it amazing how many relevant and important stories I've missed if I don't check up on any real news outlets for a week or two.
