The questions relates to the Evening News @ 6PM, the end of the day, do you tune in or drop out?

This is a hard question for me to answer,
 since I do not get my information from just one source.

Television has to be O'Reilly Fox news
not much other than that on television except for local weather

hardly any print media anymore, most not worth wiping my A$$ with...



Internet Drudge Report
            Huffington Post
            Newsmax
            moveon.org
            The New Republic
            National Review
            Human Events

these are all not the same flavor, but sure has diversity

some of the sites above are hard to read, but to stay informed you have to go behind enemy lines sometimes.

Interesting question...I really don't watch the evening news.  My DVR is set to record Around the Horn (ATH) and Pardon the Interruption (PTI) from ESPN each day.  To wind down, I watch them fast forwarding as necessary.

In the morning, I tend to scale my internet news links top to bottom...weather-local-regional-national-internet.

I believe that most of the media IS like the MoCo. They only tell you what they want you to know when they want you to know it. This makes me go elsewhere (like this site)to try to find out what is really going on in the (motorcycle) world, and I do.

Naked News has actually gotten some press from some more main stream press.  I read a surprisingly good review of their coverage in the NYT.  They can be a little campy (in a good way) and still deliver the stories.  It's just that their delivery.. ummm... method is different.

They're out of Toronto.  Their coverage is obviously written for the North American market though.  It's surprisingly decent news from babes who aren't at all dumb and take their clothes off.  Like I said, bar none the best news reporting out there.  It's not free.  If memory serves it's only $60 a year though.  So for five bucks a month you can choose between Cokie Roberts and Tom Brokaw or these reporters:

Oh, I forgot.  They also have on air TV broadcasts.  No chit.

Not on a lot of providers though.  Unfortunately nothing around me.  The broadcasts delivered over the web are good quality video though.  And not too long ago they started an Italian sister station.  Oh my...  Talk about beating hell out of web rebroadcasts of Russian news coverage :) .

In a minority here.  We watch MSNBC news as close to every day as possible.  I catch the other news all over the place, usually net versions.

Already rode this morning.  Still catching up on the daily news right now.  Sleep happens when nothing else interesting is going on.
