OT: Which news source(s) do you prefer?

[Alan Dayley]

I scan news.google.com headlines once a day and dive into things that look
interesting.  I have purposefully not customized the feeds there so that I
get as general a view as possible, though Google does some feed tweaks
automatically based on what it knows about me.

The rest of my news comes from people I follow on Twitter, Google+ and
others.  I curate who I follow in social media and relevant news just comes
to me, and mostly with better quality than if I go out and hunt for things.
