    I was more chiming in on the TV comment. The BBC, Jerusalem Post, Wall Street Journal, Australian Trust (I think) Breitbart, Reason, and Drudge.

Here in Los Angeles I watch MHz TV (with antenna)
on 58.4. It has the english versions of news from Germany, France, Japan, China, Russia, Ukraine and others direct from source. Also extremely entertaining detective stories from Italy (Montalbano), Sweden (Wallander, Irene Huss, etc.), Denmark, Finland and France. Better written than most American stuff.

I also do not watch "tv" but I do watch my Amazon Prime from time to time. NFL and NHL is on the ole laptop...

For news, in addition to Drudge: alt-market.com, gulagbound.com, khalling already mentioned zerohedge.com, thedailysheeple.com, and oftwominds.com/blog

I think that'll keep you busy. njoi.

I still read the Washington Post in print. I read just about anything online for about three sentences and if they haven’t mentioned the topic of the title of the article by then, I usually stop reading. I hate get pulled into any article that has nothing to do with the title.

The Economist (if you have a subscription) or if you want to study the opposite side of the Gulch then read MSNBC

Breitbart and Drudge Report.

Drudge is great.

I also occassionaly check out Infowars because they'll have the craziest stories which, after a short while, end up having some credibility. Something about the "nothing's crazier than the truth" element that entertains me. But, Drudge is good...

Do you want news, or do you want something that appeals to what you want to hear?

If you want headlines, then Drudge will give you a fix...if you want the metaphysical, then you will have to dig yourself.
