I rather like keeping up with current affairs and all of that, so I've made it the subject of my...
3333rd post! Time for bed. Goodye, everyone.

i find pretty much every newspaper irritating so i tend not to read them, but i used to watch the news (channel 4) most days, and if i wasn't home for Question Time i'd tape it, but since i moved in to the house i'm living in at the moment (2 years ago) i haven't been able to watch tv because my landlord won't fix the aerial, so i barely follow current affairs at all.

it's between tv and newspaper for me. i follow the news with both of those daily and it's almost too close to call between them... television might just win it.

I don't have a 'main' way.
I listen to CBC Radio Overnight sometimes http://www.cbc.ca/overnight/ I also read the paper, watch the news, and during school I read Google News. EDIT: I forgot, occasionally I read Macleans and of course I get news through here and word of mouth.

from the options given it's only magazines/journals that i don't read very often. i don't listen to the radio every day either.
on the internet i often read foreign news sites, mainly american and british ones or sometimes whatever google news brings. |

Well of course the 'unfiltered' news from the Shortwaves is how I prefer it. Knowing every day news topics in China and Uzbekistan beats MSNBC anyday.

Nothing but the top stories for Lux. Funny, though.

Well, you know, I had seen it earlier today in People magazine, and even though it might not be news, it did have to do with a news team. This seemed to be the appropriate thread for it, no?

We watch some television news, read the Telegraph every day and use magazines and the internet.
But BBC Radios 4 and 5 are often on, so that's our main source.

i read newspapers' articles on the internet, so i don't know how to vote.
however, i rediscovered recently how nice it is to read a real newspaper in its paper form, so i might do that more now... |
