What do you use categorized by tech, non-tech (current affairs)? For me: Tech: Hacker news, Reddit Non-tech: Apple news, CNN and other news channels
CNN and the a likes are all entertainment, not real news. What I mean by that, they all put a spin on each story to grab your attention and make money off you. Notice, realtime events like 911 and such, those are candid, actual, no spin events that show you how news ought to be broadcast. However, that would make news feel like c-span, dry and no one would want to watch it. I say all of this without a good alternative. I don't watch cable news. If I'm particularly interested in a topic I'll research it as best I can without hearing it from some news caster or blog. It's hard, so much crap out there. Everything isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be.
Economist is decent. When I lived in Germany, I found Die Welt a pleasure to (very slowly) read. Outside sources tend to be more objective.
NPR, BBC, Reddit, etc.
tech: yospos politics: c-spam
Yospos is SA goons right?
I start with the Drudge Report and branch out from there. Some "news" sources I avoid include HuffPo, WaPo, CNN, and MSNBC, all far too sensational. I find myself going to YouTube more often lately for raw video of events so I can see what happened without edits and BS commentary from the talking heads.
Google news, reddit, engadget
The Economist, WaPo, NYT In no particular order.
