I dislike 'the news'. It's just full of horrible events I don't need to know of. Right now, the BBC most popular includes: - Tea workers burn boss to death
- Global Notable deaths of 2012
- Heartbroken at christmas murder
- M6 car crash family Not to mention things such as the recent shootings and the like. It's just full of abhorrent things that no-ones needs to know about. Of course I don't constantly avoid it, it often has stories that do require knowledge of or events of genuine interest. There's just so much rubbernecking, there's no need for it. However, to answer your question I generally use: BBC, The Guardian and NRP.
