I tend to have NPR on in the car, although I read news from Washington Post, NPR, and BBC online. I used to follow Al-Jazeera a lot.

@spiderdust What's the channel? If I found a good NPR radio station (that I can get with all these hills), I might leave it there. I get one from Sacramento, but only when I'm East of the Berkeley Hills.

I just avoid news. I take newspaper to read editorial page with some good article on spiritual things and other stuff. I don't want to spoil my day reading real news and I am not smart enough to filter the spam ones.

For "real" news I always turn to politicians. They are amazing fountains of knowledge, I'm always in awe when they speak... No, no, no, I can't be serious, our politicians here can win a stupidity contest anytime

. I rarely watch TV, the news are looking more and more like freak shows to me.
