Where Do You Turn?

I have asked this question of several posters over the last few weeks and none of them has ever answered me, so I'll throw it open to everyone.

For reports on current affairs, which media outlet or personality do you trust to give you facts and intelligent comments as opposed to opinions and propaganda?

ABC / SBS and I also trust that woman who does the morning show on NBN, not because she offers truth, but because she excuses herself when they're discussing dodgy business.

My fave news reader is that older woman on SBS, don't know her name.

Online I like reading a variety of newspapers and twitter, so I can make my own mind up.

On the state of the economy - Ross Gittins (politican and economics editor) weekly column SMH.

Written in a way people can understand (not like some economists).

I read the SMH most days.

ABC and SBS programs are always informative.

On line magazines - Matilda being my favourite.

For overseas stuff I read a couple of New York and Boston based magazines and newspapers on line.

And my friends!

And all breaking news happens on CS of course! :^O
