Question What's Your News Source?

As an aspiring businessperson (man or woman), there are gazillions of news media outlets out there and to stay ahead, you have to keep your ears and eyes adhered on what's happening in your market, industry, surroundings, etc.

Where do you get your news, that's, what is the source of your news information and why did you choose it?

Does that mean that none of you read or watch the news?

I watch;
CNN
PBS
CBS Evening News (Dan Rather, but am slowly switching to NBC Evening News since that chic took over)

And i read CNN.com, Yahoo News, Google News, BBC News, NPR, PBS, Digg, WSJ, CNNMoney.com, and Yahoo Finance!

I like these news sources for their unbiased news perspective, and i like watching or reading more than one news source in order to get the facts, unbiased news report, because each news outlet has its own way of reporting the news.

WSJ.com for business related news, along with Bloomberg and Yahoo Finance
Washington Post, Boston Globe, LA Times, NY Times and WSJ for politics.
Inc. , Young Entrepreneur Blog, 4HWW, Evan Carmichael, Success.com for Entrepreneurial Reading.

Many others, but these are the top. The blog on this site is excellent for tips!

Haha. You said you wanted to know where we got our news from. MSNBC and Fox are a joke.
