What are your favourite news sources?

I'd make this a poll, but there are too many options and only one choice can be made. So, how about letting people know what is your choice when you want news. It doesn't matter if it is from TV, the internet, radio, newspapers, or carrier pigeon.

Post a link! Don't be shy! Home pages only!

Here's a couple of mine:

DemocracyNow! (http://www.democracynow.org) is truly amazing. Watch an hour of CNN and then watch an hour of this show. You'll see what I mean. Sounds good over audio, too.

BBC (http://news.bbc.co.uk) Not too shabby.

I can't listen to the local Pacifica station. Their news/talk programming is as bad listening to the station that carries Michael Medved.

I used to listen to the BBC World Service before the internet. Pretty decent. Local PBS station has BBC news, which I watch sometimes. Also carry Deutsche Welle programming which I catch sometimes.

News Hour is a good one.

NPR is probably my staple news source.

Democracy Now is only a program on the Pacifica network. I don't listen to the other programming so much.

I figure if I'm going to listen for one hour per day, DemocracyNow is what I'll listen to. Even at that, it gets pretty depressing after awhile, so I'm glad it's not 7 days a week.

I'll hit the BBC website now and again during the day.

Well-written, constantly updated, unique features and good human-interest articles.

Could use more photos...

My favourites include: http://www.independent.co.uk/ and http://www.guardian.co.uk/ although when I'm not at work, I prefer to watch or listen to the news on the BBC.

Daily Show, Guardian for non-US viewpoint, CNN for left view, Fox for right view, NOthing for loony left, Michael Savage for loony right.

NPR all the time.

Depends on who I am posting to which thing I use.

I like BBC Worldservice

The US site MSNBC almost always has breaking news a few minutes earlier though.

My favorite sources are the regional ones, sometimes in English, sometimes not. I love digging down to see what local people think, political cartoons are great in any language-
