Default Re: Favorite On-Line News Source?

While every news source out there is biased and definitely has an agenda, I've enjoyed cnn.com for years as my daily source of keeping up with what's going on. The U.S. site has some world news, U.S. news, and yes, some of that annoying entertainment news, but what I like is the CNN International site. It has news stories from around the world that aren't normally posted on the main page. CNNMoney has good financial news as well.

Can't say I have a favorite on-line news source, but I do prefur on-line news to the TV news channels, just for the simple fact I can pick and chose which one I read. And there is only one local news paper where I live and I hate the way they report the news.

The one I read the most is WSB TV.com

It is the one of the local Atlanta stations, it has my local news and national news with very little political slant. They have a very easy to use mobile site as well.

Google News. Compiles several sources and perspectives on each story. Let's you choose for yourself.

cnn.com has really gone downhill and reports all sorts of nonsense. I enjoy reading both www.nytimes.com and www.wsj.com . They seem to slant in opposite directions, so I feel I'm getting a more objective view on the world.
