for this household: the Manchester Guardian, BBC, Al Jazeera (on line), the Oregonian (print for local/regional news), PBS News Hour (on air)...to get out of my decidedly lefty bubble, I'll briefly skim NYT headlines and, even more briefly, FoxNews just to get a taste of the insanity...I've given up on legacy broadcast MSM... for in-depth, quality writing, I trust Harper's, MoJo, and the Progressive...late weekend rant time for me...I may be getting too old for this shit...cheers, OSD
