If you can't beat 'em, join 'em...

So where do you folks get your news from? Given the diversity here I'm sure we'll have some fun selections. For me, ever since I saw this video, I've been a Hardball man...



You mean someone actually says "hey, thats BS? win..."

Newspapers, Kindle, and i surf Bloomberg religiously for finance info. I still get the newspaper on Sundays not just the electronic form. I indulge in Newsweek, Time, and the New York Times also.

I know right? The news is so boring, why would we even care about the world we live in? May as well get drunk, have sex and watch Jerry Springer.

I actually don't keep much on the news at all. I haven't watched it for a week or so. I hate it. It's more than likely related to my sensitivity.

Sensitive people are greatly affected by emotions they witness. They feel deeply for others' suffering. Many sensitive people avoid sad movies or watching the news because they cannot bear the weighty emotions that would drive to their core and stick with them afterwards.

I understand that. You could always focus on the fluff segments. A tortoise learned how to skateboard! It would be pretty hard to get upset over that.

If the whole world stopped posting on this site would you do the same? I hope so.
