Do you still read the newspaper, or have they been replaced by the Internet for you?

I read the paper daily and stories on the Internet with headlines that grab my attention or if I'm looking for news on something specific that wasn't in the paper.

Was never a fan of newspapers TBHWY, but I am sad to see magazine circulation go down because of the Internet.

I don't anymore. I used to love to cozy in with the Sunday paper, but haven't for years. I get all the info online.

I do; particularly for local news stories. I think newspaper reports are a lot more fair, honest and less bias than news sites and blogs.

I never really was a newspaper kind of person. Not really an internet news kinda person either.

I depend on the newspaper for my daily crossword puzzle. But otherwise, I prefer to seek out global news rather than just local.

We stopped subscribing to the local paper because delivery was so unreliable. It was also a poor source of local news.
My favorite source is Google News. I can tailor it to my preferences of more International news, less local news, no sports news, etc. Each news story lists hundreds, even thousands of news stories on the same subject so I can select the most reliable sources for each story.
I like CNN TV and Internet for international stories.

Sometimes the radio or TV. Sometimes I'll read some internet news too. But I often typically only investigate stories that interest me. I've found a lot of the "news" isn't all that "new" anymore.Chris wrote:Forgiveness Man wrote:I never really was a newspaper kind of person. Not really an internet news kinda person either.
