Do You Still Read Newspapers? (movie, TV, rock, house)

[Delahanty]

I prefer print newspapers. When reading, I'd also rather curl up with a book than a Nook.

Sometimes, but mainly for local news.

All the other news hits the internet at least 24 hours earlier.

I used to read the newspaper front to back. Would look up the movie ads and use the tv guide info in it. Would read the want ads and funnies. Now, we just get one newspaper a week, on Sunday, and we hardly ever read it. The movies are no longer published in the paper and they also dropped the tv guide info. The paper has shrunk way down and the font is much smaller. Somehow it has become uninteresting.

I am friends with a typical sheeple and I love them dearly but MAN OH MAN are they so asleep and in control its not funny!!

The other day they said to me "You should watch local news to see whats going on.... I watch FOX for everything else" -- I was disgusted when they said this... FOX IS MAINSTREAM GARBAGE!!!!! -- You aint gonna hear a jack once of truth on FOX about anything!! -- YOUR ONLY GOING TO HEAR WHAT THEY WANT YOU THINKING......


Oh my.......

I do get a paper newspaper daily. Mostly I get it because it pleases my dog to fetch it for me, and it pleases me to do the daily cryptogram and read Dear Abby and the comic. Oh, yeah, and the obits. I'm old.

I like still getting the newspaper.....

[Redraven]

Yes.
I get the local newspaper daily.
However, if they raise the subscription rate again, I may have to rethink it...

I can't remember the last time I read a newspaper. I do know they have gotten thinner, more expensive, and have very little content these days.

I get my news on TV or on the internet.

I stopped my subscription last year, they keep raising the rate and shrinking the paper. I still buy it probably 3 times a week..

Yes, I read two newspapers every day. I get local, national and international news in a compact yet thorough package that I can consume at my leisure. There is no screaming or shouting, and the opinion and hyperbole are confined to the editorial page.

I also watch the network news each evening. Cable news used to be informative, but now it's all political hyperbole and pop culture infotainment.
