How do you stay up to date on current news?

The only "news" channels I watch on TV are CNN, MSNBC, and I do watch the ABC Evening News with David Muir if I'm home.

I listen to NPR a lot on the radio.

And honestly online... CF is not a terrible place to get some news as well IMO. At least you hear from both sides.

I totally understand that all news has a bias, and MSNBC especially leans left big time... but at least they are generally factual. Yes, you tend to hear the positive things going on by the left and the negative things on the right, but it's the truth.

Occasionally I have tried to watch Fox News because I do believe in trying to hear what the other side is saying... but since they have admitted to basically lying most of the time (and fined big time for it)... why would anyone bother? If you know you're being duped and lied to... why watch? Do you want to be stupid and ignorant or what?

how anyone could 'dumb' this post for you being honest is laughable to me

As someone that works in media for a living, for the love of everything holy, if you want to follow truly unbiased publications use this graph. If you choose to follow far left or far right pubs so be it but it's on you if you choose to go down their rabbit holes.

If you want the straight news with no bias, follow the middle of the pack here

I’m a senior citizen and I haven’t watched the news in years because it’s to depressing and I’m fine with that. CF usually keeps me updated.

I got a chuckle out of Barstool making this list.

People try to interpret this through their lens, but the most telling thing about this chart is the parabola trendline.

You watch MSNBC and CNN, and you are calling people who watch FOX stupid? That's funny. Do you watch The View as well? I'm not trying to defend FOX either.
