Nope, no local or network news here. Too many honest websites.

Not since 9-11 and the liberation of Iraq. I had quit with the MSM before that but those were such momentous events that I watched to follow history, mostly the McNeil-Lehrer News Hour. No Toilet reVerse news now.

I watch the local news. For the weather forecast.
No national news at all.

In truth, not since the Reagan era. I watched them lie and said go to hell!

We had conservative talk show hosts out here, I listened to them - Jim Eason, etc.

What I really miss is newspapers. Used to be they had information, but they turned into propaganda. Now they're thin rags with propaganda.

I went to the SF Chronicle and Examiner in the 80's to repair their pre press equipment and we talked about their bias. They denied it, I stood fast. There they were, half assed bald with ponytails. Chuckle heads! We're not biased...

Pointed out facts with attribution, got the personal insults.

No, I do not watch the news, not even the local LGBTQRSTWXYZ horse shit - makes my blood boil.

I slowly weaned away in 2008 when I discovered I could not listen to sparkle muffin's voice. Once I cut back I just continued until I cut it out.

There was a news story this morning and as I sat at the computer and piddled away my wife came and told me there was an active shooter in a nearby town (Shelton, for locals) I didn't even look up I just told her that it was a false report and apparently had something to do with an arrest at the school.

And that's the way it goes, the lame stream can't keep up even when they try, which isn't often I guess.

Nope, not since the advent of CNN and FNC. CNN used to be good objective news...not so much now.

Nowadays I'll watch the local 10PM news for local stories and weather, but that's it.

I have to admit that I do watch the local and national news. I have to keep my finger on the pulse of the liberal left, and monitoring their propaganda is a good way to do it,

No...it's been maybe 10-12 years since I've watched it. I've also not watched a single commercial, other than Super Bowl ads, since DVR became available from our cable company.

Local news only but even then at times they get turned off when they start to downgrade President Trump.

Lou Dobbs is the only worth while program to watch.

Nope. Not just because of the fact we don't have cable as I stopped watching the news before that.

I just got tired of the agenda instead of fact reporting. I had even stopped watching Sportscenter because they had to inject politics in that, too.

Now I read the news selectively. If it doesn't interest me, I simply don't click it.
