I used to watch AlJam - but it's gone now - it was ok but a bit too much on the middle eastern issues.

Now it's CNN and I abhore them - I'm so tired of so called news journalists interjecting their opinions and inflections in their reports.

I want the news, not their opinions :(

I find it all too much. Its not news anymore, it's drama. If I am in the house around dinner time I will turn on the evening news with Lester Holtz I believe it's NBC.

In my car I listen to the BBC satellite news channel.

I cut cable last year so the television is rarely on.   I'm sure there are many who like to draw conclusions based on viewing preferences but most people are more complex than that.   Or at least I hope so.

There isn't any mainstream network i can completely trust, they play the news that fits their politcial outlook or needs. Most often when national news i watch the first 10 minutes to get the headlines on ABC or NBC. During the day i used to check out Fix news, but even they seem slanted towards and against certain GOP politicians

I have come to hate watching the news on TV.  It's a far fetch from journalism these days. I prefer to get my news online or in the newspaper.  I can pick and choose what I want to read about.  

What does it say about my personality?  I hate drama and sensationalism.

According to 'them' it is true. Certain personality types watch different stations along with your political leanings.

I cut cable also last year & don't miss the added drama from that.

I don't like watching any "news" stations on TV because I think they are all entertainment shows now. They are not objective, well-researched, news stories. I try to avoid TV news and get my news elsewhere - radio, online, etc. I also just canceled my newspaper, although that was more about the crummy customer service/billing process and the proliferation of ads, and lack of articles.

When I used to watch TV news, it was a combo of CNN, Fox News and The Daily Show & Colbert Report.  I like to get news from both sides of the political spectrum to get a somewhat balanced idea of the story.  Now I tend to get it online, mainly from foreign sources without much concern for US politicing.

Hi, Peter. 

   I skim the headlines of several dozen News Websites in the morning, and again in the evening.

 About a dozen Financial papers (WSJ, Bloomberg, Forbes, etc.)

  The headlines of a dozen "Conservative" sites (NewsMax, The Hill, American Thinker, InfoWars).

   The headlines from another dozen news sites like Drudge, Daily Caller, Jerusalem Post, Washington Times, Daily Mail UK, etc.

* I also look at about three dozen Real Estate Sites and Tech Sites.

What does it say about me?  That I want to be informed and on top of what is happening, without the brainwash/indoctrination from TV news, New York Times, NPR, Fox News, USA Today, WaPo, HuffPo, etc.

PBS only.

If a program has commercials, then they are trying to "sell" me into watching, meaning usually bias to keep me scared, worried, entertained or angry! None of those things make "news reporting".
