  • What's Your Favorite Online News Sources?

    __________________________________________________ ______________________________________
    In this election year there's plenty of stories and opinions to think about. People on this site are from all over the country/world and are tied together by their interests in artifacts, and usually the land - what news sources do you use keep up with the present happenings?
    Here's a few of mine. Living in MD., I of course check out the obligatory
    Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/regional
    WJLA News pretty much drafts the Post's and generic API type stories, but you don't have to register to leave comments - a nice feature.
    WJLA is the local ABC affiliate for the greater Washington DC area. From our studios in Arlington, VA ABC7 covers national and local news, sports, weather, traffic and culture and carries entertainment and sports programming. WJLA serves Alexandria, Springfield, Annandale, Tysons, Reston, Ashburn, Centreville and Manassas, Virginia and Bethesda, Rockville, Gaithersburg, Silver Spring, Wheaton, Beltsville, Greenbelt, Bowie, College Park, Largo, Crofton, Annapolis, Hyattsville and Takoma Park, Maryland, and all the communities in between.

    For the untold stories/alternate opinions there's the very good
    AlterNet http://www.alternet.org/
    To see what's going on in the SW I usually scan the local NBC News4Tucson

    I'd like to find some other good regional places to draw ideas from.
    "How long, if this theft goes on, will this country still be here?" Jackson Browne debuts a new song at OCCUPY Unplugged and asks us "Which Side Are You On?...
    If the women don\'t find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
