So I just thought this might be interesting if I asked you all where you got your nes from. In the modern 2010s we have so many media sources and ways to get our news that often we don't realise it. I personally get most of my news from broadsheet Newspapers and/or their online sites such as The Australian, The Sydney Morning Herald, or sometimes the ABC or the BBC online. P.S: The poll is multiple choice so you can select more than one.
I checked both "I don't pay attention" and "Internet." Because most of the time I don't pay attention but when I do its from the internet.
I get my news from nearly all the sources. I watch the TV news, local and national, every morning, look it up on the Internet, read about it in the newspaper, talk about it with others, and listen to it on the radio while I'm driving.
My landlady watches the TV for the most part so I get my news from city news papers, TV (occasionally), the internet and word of mouth.
I get most of my news from the Internet forums and blogs I visit. Usually if anything important or something that concerns me happens, somebody on one of them will have a link to an article about it. I also read the student newspaper most days, so that's where I get most of my local news. I don't watch much news on TV, other than the weather occasionally.
I get my LGBT news from various websites, mainly afterelton.com, advocate.com, thestranger.com, and slapupsidethehead.com. I get my regular news from bits of tv, newspaper and some of the big stuff off the sites above, but mainly just through word of mouth. I find newspapers in my area to be very very poor quality, and just pandering to seniors. I find the news to be too depressing and pointless for my taste (I mean do i really need to know that this girl died or this person was shot or this building burned down ect.? Thats all it ever is). I find that any news worth hearing, im going to hear without trying to hear it. Like Hati for example. I could not avoid hearing about that if i tried, so I dont actively go looking for it. Only my LGBT news, because I try to stay ontop of everything thats happening with something so important to me.
