Best Place to get the News?

Cappy Z. · Jan 29, 2011

The Mrs. and I are not at all pleased with the news coverage. It seems there is so much more going on that we hear from others. Where do you recommend... the Best Place for getting the News?

Please list news sources including internet.

Thanks.

A wide variety of sources with different perspectives...sometimes you can see what's going on this way. Non-US news can be surprising.

If you want to know what is going on all over you need to watch like CNN. If you are watching local news that is mainly what you age going to get what is going on around you...... Matt

No doubt about it: www.BBCnews.co.uk and BBC news TV, I watch and look at it twice a day and they are away ahead of everyone else on World News. :icon_thumright:

They say Dan rather on HDNet Is supposed to be
real News But I'm not a World News Person.

When Naked News out of Canada was Free on the Net
I "Watched" that news.
Never realy heard it though :dontknow:

Only News I realy Watch is Local
& Only news I read is the Local Paper on the Net.

If I catch a Headline that Interests me of course,
which sometimes causes me to read something from
another county, or state.

Don't quit your day job....comedy isn't your strong point.

However, This is NOT the politics forum...

I do watch Glenn Beck...when he's not crying....

Hi cappy, I know what you mean. I try to get my info from a few sources like BBC, Sky and ITV etc, but one of the best for me is http://www.liveleak.com/ it's raw for the most part and non pc, there is also some adult stuff every now and then, but get past that and you have downloads from when and where it's happening Iraq, Afganistan, American/British/French/Worldwide political the whole enchilada plus science and more. Try it, it may be what you are looking for maybe not, but I'll bet you'll go back :icon_thumleft:

.

All the best to you and yours
