So where do you all get your news from these days?

I find that ESPECIALLY television news has just become a race to the bottom. CNN at least seemed reputable 10 years ago, now it's Anderson Cooper trying to be hip (heard him say "Bling Bling" last week, painful), celebutards, fearmongering, and gossip.

I'd love to have a ranking of major news outlets by the INVERSE of their coverage of (anna nicole smith + britney + paris hilton). CNN and FoxNews would both BOMB on that scale.

Even online it's hard to find good authoritative news -- it's all press releases and borderline blog posts (or reposting things reported in other news outlets).
