Read All About It: All the News That's Fit To...

Print? Broadcast? Tweet? Blog?

How are you getting your news these days? How is it different from five years ago? Two years ago?

Five years ago I read the actual newspaper every day. Two years ago, my online homepage was set to a news page. Today, I get my news from Twitter. Remember when Capt. Sully landed the plane in the Hudson? I heard it first from eyewitnesses on Twitter.

If a story really interests me, I'll Google it and read the report on the first news site that comes up (as long as I consider it to be reliable).

I also have news shows on in the morning while I'm getting ready for work and (if I get home early enough) in the evening while I'm getting dinner ready. And, as I've mentioned in a previous post, I'm a big fan on Sunday Morning on CBS.

So, how are you getting your news? How do you think we'll be getting our news five years from now?
