Something that I forgot to include?
As a side question: What do you follow more closely? National News, International News, or Local News?

Satire is the way to go man, why on earth would I want to hear the same news from some boring old guy who makes it sound sad when I could hear it with some snide remarks that poke fun at people? It’s no less the news than anything else only it is actually fun to see. |

International News and I’m probably the only dinosaur here who actually enjoys it to read the newspaper every day. |

International. Domestic news bores and depresses me, and international news at least has the advantage of not being boring. Various news websites (mostly BBC though) and newspapers (the comics my work colleagues leave lying around so I can find out what’s going on in the world of celebrities and reality TV, and a more serious broadsheet I buy myself) I get my parody news fix from The Onion. |

Online newspaper (theage.com.au). Then our tabloid paper Herald Sun for entertainment at lunch. The Chaser is satirical gold. |

I wish. I don’t think there is a competent newspaper being printed in Canada at this point. |

Where’s the “collection of RSS feeds from various online news sources” option?
Used to watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Report daily… really ought to get back into doing that, but what with the whole living in the UK thing the time to download it means “ooh hey, let’s watch the Daily Show today” and actually being able to do so are separated by a span of time that’s easily enough to get bored and start doing something else in.
If they bring back online streaming to the UK then they’ll find themselves back on my “go there daily” list. Even more so if they provide an RSS feed to remind me to do so. Until then… I’ll just watch the clips that get Dugg. |

CNN, NPR, and a a little bit of BBC because I like their accents.
Beyond that, I glance the headlines of USA Today when I pbum through the gas station every morning, and I get the rest from online sources. |

I usually get it through yahoo.com and internet blogs. Although, on the several occasions I get it through the word of mouth. |
