    I don't read any of the daily newspapers, I'll read the Guardian website from time to time and I do enjoy BBC News 24 when I have any time to watch it.

    I also enjoy:

    I rely on the good people of DF to provide me with the information relevant to the world (woman gives birth to frog etc)

    Normally watch the news in the evening and maybe browse the bbc site every now and again

    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

    only time i watch the news is at 6am when my tv wakes me up, needless to say i dont remember any of it

    read a paper or watch news at tea time occasionally, and tend to take an intrest in current events posted on here
