Has anyone else just stopped watching the news?
I watch the local outlet regularly and will watch Fox when somewhere that has paid TV. I avoid the major network national news shows because the continual BS just grates on my nerves too badly. I get most of my information through friends on facebook who are dedicated to staying on top of things and verifying sources. No one source has it all correct, but by searching for references on important topics and reading as many as I have time for, then debating it online, I am generally as well informed as I can be.
