11. I read online--newspapers, DU, a few others... I watch BBC International rather than Morning Traitors or CNN now.

But after the NFL playoffs on Sunday, no more YouTube TV (and its $86/mo fees) so, I will listen free to BBC and a few MSNBC shows on TuneIN radio... (Yeah the repetitive commercials suck, but I tune OUT that part of TuneIN... )

Off topic, but the downside of turning off my access to local network channels and the rest from YouTube TV, is that I am in a terrain- and distance-impacted area that makes even Denver network channels hard to consistently pick up via a good indoor OTA antenna, but, so be it. I DO wish there were streaming services dedicated to providing access to all the local networks in the area that would have been free to all via analog years ago but are poorly transmitted via OTA. I'd pay a little each month for THAT. OR, TuneIn could add stations dedicated to network broadcasting. Half the time, I'd be content to simply listen to TV rather than watch, and again, that used to be possible via analog before TV signals were all digitized. Oh, well. That's my venting for the morning.
