Where do you get your news?
I listen to several podcasts from NPR, and the New York Times. I don’t really have time to watch TV and I’ve never been a big newspaper reader. How about you?

Channel 4, and my local channel for about two hours a day.
NPR during my long commute, then the occasional scan of Google News through the day.
New York Times, online. CNN. Comcast and whatever is a headline on there.
I can’t stand local news stations for some reason. I usually watch CNN or MSNBC, or read the Sun Sentinel/USA Today/NY Times
Newspaper: NY Times and Columbus Dispatch. Quad-City Times when I’m visiting home.
TV: MSNBC
Online: CNN
I’m a news whore?
I can’t stand local news stations either, I don’t know why…even as a kid I hated them.
NPR on the go (which is most of the time) and CNN at home.
Local news first thing in the morning then Morning Joe. In the evening I like to watch FOX News if I have the time. I don’t like to limit myself to one source.
For Westchester, NY, there is only one local news channel and it REALLY has news important to me which you really do NOT see on any other channel.
@jonsblond I love Morning Joe! That’s what I watch when I’m getting ready for the day :) At night I like spending time with Keith Olbermann though, even if he is a little nuts.
NPR, local paper delivered to my door, NYT online. That’s pretty much it. I don’t watch TV, unless the kids have it on, and then, I try not to pay attention. TMI, I know.
I read the AP News widget on the iPhone every morning.
I also listen to a bunch of NPR podcasts.
Like @Ashpea9288, I am a news whore too. Actually, I might just be an information whore, though I have yet to start on a wiki binge.
I do not have time for TV, and in this day and age of technology and info 24/7, having to restrict my schedule for a particular show is ridiculous. I get news daily from CNN, BBC news (so as to get an outside-America source, they also focus more on world stuff), and Raw Story (for news that mainstream journalists won’t report on). I also read NYT Health and WebMD news daily. Finally, Digg.com has good roundups for Science and Health.
Since I go to so many different sources/day, it helps that I am subscribed to their RSS feeds, so I never have to go to individual websites. I just check my Feedly or Google Reader everyday.
I don’t follow let the mainstream media infect my mind.
If it’s big enough, I hear the news from my friends: Facebook, Twitter, and Fluther.
Fark for a quick rundown of quirky stuff.
Mostly from my home page at my email address, sometimes NPR, and occasionally I’ll read the local newspaper. I would rather use Internet sources for news than the local dweebs on TV.
well, fluther, of course!
i have to admit i don’t really watch the news or read the newspaper. so ^ that is partly true. i get my news from word of mouth, and then check it online or in papers/magazines for truth
NPR ftw. I’ll catch snippets of news when I’m home and my dad is watching CNN or what have you, and sometimes I just keep an eye out on yahoo news or something similar.
When I get off work at midnight I listen to the BBC World Report on NPR. This is a great source for news with much more of an international focus than any of the news outlets here in the US.
CNN, FoxNews, digital papers.
