[quote=Anonymous]Guess I’m more old school and prefer a source over a sound bite (or click bait)…although I’ll hear or see something that sends me down a trail.

I’m in RVA so my local “bookmarked” websites won’t mean anything but I spend 15-20 minutes each morning checking our three local channels plus a few others of interest like BizSense, Richmond Free Press, and Style Weekly. But I also check City Council/Board of Supervisors agendas and certainly any School Board actions. We still have public school aged kids but I’ll likely still pay attention since more than half our local budget goes to our schools.

Beyond that, I’ll watch c-span, check out regulations.gov, and am fascinated with the SCOTUSblog.

My real find, though, this past Virginia General Assembly session was [url=https://cardinalnews.org/]Cardinal News[/url], a news outlet focusing on Southwest Virginia. But they clearly mark opinion pieces as such and did a nice job covering the happenings in Richmond.

On the weekends, I’ll check out a few National and international sources, some for fun, others for perspective (on how the rest of world views things and “US”). [/quote]
