[QUOTE="Dega Moo, post: 1063426, member: 19930"] I've seen posts in two threads complaining there's been little to no national news about the blizzard and livestock devastation in South Dakota which was puzzling because I'd seen and read news reports. Specifically there have been complaints that very little is found when the event is Google'd. I'd already Google'd for Blizzard Cattle Deaths and gotten quite a few hits(over 4000). When I saw complaints about the national mainstream media I looked to see who had news stories or links showing up on Google and most of the national media as I know it showed up. My results were clearly different from these other posters. I realize we all do things differently, we rely on different resources for our news and maybe that explains the dichotomy. I think those threads deserve to retain focus so rather than hijack either of those threads, I thought I'd start this thread and get a reading on how CT members get their news and define the media. -Do you get significant amounts of national news from television? Are the stations national networks, local stations, broadcast or cable/sat? -Do you get significant national news from the internet using a browser? Which sites do you use and trust the most? -Do you get significant national news from Sirius/XM. Which stations do you listen to and trust the most. -Do you get news on a smartphone or other personal device through an app? What app? -What to you is the mainstream or lamestream media? How do you define it? -If you Googled for results on the blizzard, what search engine were you using and what actually did you google? [/QUOTE]
