For me, I get most of my TV-based news from reliable sources such as The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. As for the rest, I just go and look up stories on the internets.

How about the rest of OT?

Mostly the Trib and Times online, some from indy news sites, and I'll occasionally watch my local PBS news or Brian Williams, although in the case of the latter I find it a bit too abbreviated and commercial-filled. I also watch the Report and Daily Show, but I don't consider them my source for news.

if I didn't see it happen with my own two eyes, hear it with my own two ears, smell it with my nose, or feel it with the rest of my senses.. then it never happened and no news source should be considered reliable or credible in any sense.. and the same goes for all of the text books they throw at us..

I just make up most of it in my head. It's probably more informative than what cable news networks offer at least.

Just from the TV. Australian news programs are fairly reliable for unbiased news.

The Internet. I have RSS updating my iGoogle account. I have set it so that I get headlines from BBC, Google finance, Toronto Star ), CBC, Morningstar, etc... even Yahoo! Odd News. I just go through the headlines two or three times per day and I choose/expand which ever sounds interesting.

To be honest, I have gotten so lazy and disenfranchised that I get it from here
-I know there will be some serious fact checking and decent opinions on both sides
-it will also be posted in a timely manner

New York Times website. also Politico.com. I'll occasionally watch PBS or something but usually not and I've heard it all by then anyway from the internet. sometimes the New Yorker or the Economist.

Metro newspapers

Yahoo

But in terms of political stories, I personally believe even Youtube comments have more credibility than mainstream media sources.

CNN for war and disasters, Globe and Mail and Toronto Star for Canadian news, BBC for international news. I don't trust the Toronto Sun, New York Post, TMZ, or Fox News.

I'm a cable news junkie. I switch between, CNN, MSNBC, Comedy Central, FNC. I normally don't watch the network nighty news shows but sometimes(about once a week) I'll watch Brian Williams and the CBC version called The National.

The only news I get off the internet is sporting news From Yahoosports and foxsports.
