What channel do you watch? If you don't please say why.

I usually have CNN on all day, while I work on my computer, it's on mute until I see something interesting.

@ms__omega: Agreed, a lot of bad news this week.

Anyone watching the Sixties on CNN? I gotta admit I teared up when Kennedy give a speech about peace at that university after the cold war.

I refuse to watch the news under the basis that the modern television media sucks the moral lifeblood out of everyone who watches it.

Local News is unbiased and just states what happened. So I watch that, but I read up on most online.

@ccraft: BBC, breaking news, TIME, Geonet (which tells me about Earthquakes in my country), Weathwatch (to tell me how bad the weather is), yes I follow the CNN twitter (but the BBC always ahead of it) and my local news channels but I don't watch them.

I like Young Turk except when it got on to certain topics. The host may claim he's unbias, but he can get too fired up on certain topics, I can almost feel the invisible punches darting out the screen sometimes.

Anyway, I like them because the platform they're on allows them to utilize more creativity and they have more room and more time to give discussions and give their insights.

My country's news organisation (CBC) is pretty good and I keep myself up-to-date. I've made it a habit to do my own research when something comes up and I've found Reuters to be the most reliable for presenting unbiased reporting. CNN is a go-to for when there's something happening live or MSNBC. BBC is another brilliant choice and is a late night favourite.

Not voluntarily, but when it's on I'll check in with it.
