    How do you get your news?

    How do you usually get your news? (As in, real world news).

    dispite my efforts into not caring at all. mostly clickbait articles. then i get curious and look up legitimate news articles realize the world is still horrible and regret putting an effort into it. ignorance is bliss.

    Well I'm probably the lowest posting active member. All a part of my brilliant strategy to make the few things i post seem good!

    I usually watch Channel 4 because I don't trust 2 and 7 around here. Channel 7 can't seem to talk without making mistakes and Channel 2 we won't even go there.

    I also stay pretty ignorant. Mostly the people around me pass on news to me if it's important, haha. Otherwise sometimes I look at the news on my phone. But rarely.

    Imgur, actually. If some major events happens, usually something about it hits the front page, and by the time it does, usually the facts have been checked and the bias has been filtered out.

    I just feel like I can't trust major news outlets anymore.

    I use the Australian Broadcasting Corporation site, which I think is pretty reliable. My friend and I usually have tea in the morning and read through it. I wouldn't bother on my own probably. xD

    Yeeeeeeah, I don't know anything except what's on in the morning ten minutes before I head into work. XD Mostly people just pass on any important news to me. Most news is rarely good news, anyway.

    Social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. From time to time, I'll check out a few articles on Time and CNN, but that's about it. I don't bother to watch for news on TV.

    Google News mainly, but I do read the local paper and watch news channels from time to time.

    I think the important thing is to look at many different sources so you get a good picture of what's going on without bias. Ray would back me up on this and he's a big fan of NPR and such.
