This is all you need to know people. Now back to your bunkers to finish the Palin 2012 signs.
but that is what I listen to on the radio. Local news has always annoyed me and I don’t have cable (but I’m betting that would annoy me too).
but don’t think of that as progressive radio. Used to listen to AM 760 but more for the escape listening to progressive opinion gave me from the dark days of Bush world than for news. Since the exciting time of the past election I’ve lost interest in hearing the same old diatribes so listen much less frequently. Guess I’m not cut out to be a lefty ditto head either. Still like to catch Rachel Maddow on MSNBC. She’s never grating, always smart, well prepared and unfailingly courteous to her guests, no matter who they are. Very easy to take.
…in a butch sorta way. A guilty pleasure.
but you said:
This should be the requirement for any news program. Unfortunately, intellectually challenged, partisan and brash seem to rule the day.
If the ratings were high for balanced, reasonable shows, then everyone would do that.
Maddow has a dedicated audience, but FOX continues to dominate the ratings.
Web portals.
My homepage is Yahoo, and that’s usually the first thing I see for headlines. I also use Firefox which gives me a little tab that directs me to BBC headlines of national and international news.
I watch the local news every other night or so. Usually I end up yelling at the screen because of the way that they cover stories, but I mostly watch it for the weather and sports.
Blogs like Pols are how I can filter whether a story is important or not. If it shows up here, S2 and channel 9, then it’s probably worth paying attention to.
I usually read CNN, NYT, DPO and Daily Camera online, as well as Pols on a daily basis. I do watch the local TV news too but also mostly just for the weather.
By the end of the day when I am watching the 9 O’clock news its about 1/1oth of a story I’ve already read about earlier in the day, but by that time of night I just need some mindless candy, and Adele or Libby is there to spoon feed it to me.
The Daily Show. And it appears to be the prime source for people my daughter’s age.
The Daily Show is hilarious, but even if it was a valid news source, they only cover one or two stories a night.
Still, I’d rather they be getting it from Stewart than O’Reilly or Glenn Beck.
showed that a growing number of younger people get their news from Colbert/Stewart
http://www.rasmussenreports.co…
.
That those who’s top news source was The Daily Show and The Colbert Report were the most up to date on the news and those who’s primary source was Fox ranked last.
I would have picked The Daily Show as my third, after internet newspapers and blogs.
Or David Sirota.
Are you some sort of illumanati ?
…my Yin and Yang. My Hank Williams and Neil Armstrong. The clear blue sky and the deep blue sea.
why you’re so well informed!
…to have not one, but two posters that quite simply know everything. Plus one of them (Wade “Chuck” Norris) can apparently kick MOR’s and my ass at one meeting.
Gods, I tell you.
cause i am the Texas President – so there.
Mine looks more like a Democratic hit-list than anything else:
-Investor’s Business Daily (hard copy)
-MichelleMalkin.com
-RedState.com
-Fox News (Beck/O’Reilly/Hannity)
-Gunny Bob
-Rush Limbaugh
-FoxNews.com
-FactCheck.org
And to be fair, I do get my share of:
-CNN (Blitzer/Cooper)
-ColoradoPols.com
-CNN.com
-Boulder Daily Camera
-Wall St. Journal
-Ed Schultz (only when I feel like a laugh)
I would also watch MSNBC if it weren’t such an awful, hateful disgrace to human intelligence.
among all the rest of those purveyors of lies and misinformation?
Rush Limbaugh and Gunny Bob are not news sources. They’re a great source for conservative spin and editorialized soundbites, but they are not news.
…of the word ‘fact.’ See, mine includes things that have been logically reasoned and are based in reality. Fantasies and feel-good propaganda don’t fit the bill.
And to the person who replied below, I would point out that ‘conservative radio’ is one of the poll options. The question is ‘where do you get your news from?’ I understand when listening to anybody or getting news from any source that the person or organization delivering that news has their own take on what the facts mean. But that’s why I also listed several “progressive” (a pseudonym if ever I’ve heard one) sources. I like to hear both sides of an argument, and also do research to make sure the facts are as stated.
That of you being filled with right wing radio (and presumably its cohorts.) What a shock. Your whole intellectual diet is, well, not intellectual or for that matter, factual.
Back when Enid Goldstein was on the air in Dever she mentioned a number of times that she would listen to Rush before her air time so that she knew what the frothing dittoheads would be calling about.
Enid! She was wonderful.
…for long term listening.
Here in Sarasota we are lucky to have a truly local TV station on cable. They were a branch of the local paper (owned by the NYT) but spun off a few months ago. They went dark for a few months while some financing was worked out, but now back.
We love it. You get news that you wouldn’t ever get from the Tampa stations and they put in a good mix of national and international news. And the people in front of the camera are average looking, maybe even a tad less. Reality!
Is primary sources. I watch C-SPAN regularly, and listen to the Colorado Legislature most days when it is in session. I watch and listen to County Commission and City Council meetings when there are issues before them that concern me.
I guess I prefer to get at least some of my news unfiltered.
Either that or I need a life.
I think most people (myself included when it comes to municipal government) don’t know how to filter what’s important from all the things that are going on on the screen.
If you can forgo the aggregators, then more power to you.
Personally, I will take the filtered news, but I’ll use my critical thinking skills to get the information and filter out the BS.
This is admittedly an unscientific method, and if I had the time I’d do what you do Ralph.
Honestly, I’d probably watch a lot more CSPAN and Colorado Assembly if my wife would allow it. 🙂
It’s pretty easy to keep the General Assembly streaming in another window while I’m working.
I wish I had the dedication to stream the General Assembly. You should be our GA correspondent. The most primary sources are always the best.
Colorado Media Matters.
http://colorado.mediamatters.org/
the National Media Matters is starting a
Financial Media Matters to watch the business community commentators like Cramer, so Stewart want have to…
http://www.commondreams.org/fu…
Colorado Media Matters shut its doors a couple weeks ago (though you can still access the archives at their old site), so probably not the best source for actual news.
what happened?
shut it down, decided to centralize operations. The Denver Post, Colorado Independent and Westword all covered its demise.
state outlet, kind of a pilot project for localizing the national Media Matters model. So you could as well have asked earlier this month whether the other 49 states’ media does not matter!
One sad fallout from Colorado Media Matters shutting down — now Jon Caldera only has half as many listeners as he did when they were monitoring his every word!
Jon, if you readin’, call me!
distracted by the dance.
I cannot live without a daily fix of POTUS, BBC World News and the usual high-calorie mix of Sports Radio (usually hockey.)
is a favorite…I also look at Drudge. CNN, MSNBC on TV. I take a look at the Washington Post and Chicago Tribuen on-line daily. Progressive radio is on most of the day in my office (although Thom Hartman gets on my nerves sometimes, so I’ve been known to turn him off).
I’ve cancelled my subscription to the Post since they picked up Mike Rosen….I loathe the man and will not have him in my house.
you can get info from there (that are liberal) that won’t come out on the media for months.
And his spin on headlines is so transparent, if aggravating.
if you can get past the headlines, the links are often worthwhile.
For national and international news I go to various online newspapers in the countries along with UK, France, Germany, Japan, Australian news sources.
It was through a British yahoo website that the information about Rumsfield censoring Iraq stories destined for U.S. consumption was found. That was confirmation of what many in the u.S. suspected.
Locally and nationally I like the usual online newspapers from various cities around our country.
Blogs are good for a sense of the bloggers. HuffPost is good for Progressive news views.
Internet radio is great for music.
Politics is a whole ‘nuther animal. A whole ‘nuther animal.
I go to MSNBC and CNN several times a day, also read aol site for international and national headlines daily.
for local news I read the local weekly newspaper and I am active in community events and local gov.
for state politics I go to ColoradoPols (especially during campaign season and during session) atleast once a day and RMN several times a week.
5 years ago the majority of my news came from Ch. 9 or 7 local news. Now this news source is probably #4 or 5 on my list. I catch the local news on Ch. 9 three or four times a week.
for my daily political scuttle butt, like who is going to primary who, I go to ColoradoPols! Why do we love this stuff so?
..oh, and Farmers’ Alamanac, for biz and weather newz.
has all the news I need.
…which is……I don’t know what “I Ching” is. Don’t shun me! I will go to the back of the line for remedial ed.
and Tarot cards will soon eliminate the need for print media.
Financial Times – hard copy and online
Way better than the WSJ on markets and financial universe, and solid news reporting
The Week
Newsweek
I have two subscription services that send me headlines. One is Colorado & National. One is National and international. I read the stories online. After opening day I also get Cubs news pushed to me.
I subscribe through associations and professional and trade groups. They also send news links and stories that I read online. Some send hard copy too – I hardly ever look at them.
I watch way too much CSPAN – but only when there are interesting topics on the agenda. The House and Senate Finance Committees send me agendas and sometimes links to primary news events.
And then there are a few blogs. Politics (coloradopols) Science and Technology (Next Big Thing, The Speculist) and one or two others occasionally.
