Interesting enough, I have just noticed I get mostly all of my news off the internet. There is the casual news that I receive from talking to friends but more often than not, we do not discuss the news too much. Our conversations seem to consist more about our daily life and interests than what is going on in the world. Whenever I do receive words on current news, it is always from one of these three sites: Facebook, Yahoo, or YouTube. My lack of effort on being more aware of what is going on in the world has causes me to not even bother to search the news for anything. Usually, Yahoo would post their most important stories in the middle of their website and if it interests me, I would click on it to read more. On Facebook, if I see someone’s status talking about an interesting news topic, I would just open a new tab and read it as well. I do not go out looking for news but if it happens to be presented to me, I will read it.
There are other places that I occasionally get news from. The radio is one that I might retrieve a little bit of news from. Usually, the stations always have breaks in between their music to discuss topics and sometimes when I am lazy to switch the station, I would sit and listen to what they have to say. I am constantly watching Sportscenter to catch up on every sport related news that I have missed. This channel would be where I obtain over half of my news.
Very true for me too that i normally don't go looking for news, and i only read the stories that interest me.
