Late Show with Stephen Colbert (he still does satire on the real events), and the occasional BBC News... those cover my TV news...

Oh, for those who think RT News is Putin's Prodigy... grow the fuck up already. Thom Hartmann at 6pm CST, Lee Camp's Redacted tonight on Fridays (it may be called "Headline News at 7pm (CST)), Headline News with Ed Schultz (M-Th, 7pm CST). Other shows on there... Excellent sources all.

Understand what you are watching... from any source, and always take anything with a grain of salt until you research it more thoroughly.
