ntrprnr 0 #1 October 19, 2006 Quick question: You come into the office... Or wake up and take your coffee to the computer. What do you read first to get "in the know?" So if you walk into the office and they're talking about anything from North Korea to Grey's Anatomy, you can add something, or at least not be totally out of it? So you wake up, and online, you read... what? Thanks! -Peter_______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Amazon 7 #3 October 19, 2006 Why... Speakers Corner for sure.... You get all the days talking points since on the west coast we are 3 hours behind all the east coast news of the day... so they have had time to place their personal spin on the news of the day.

skymama 37 #11 October 19, 2006 I turn on the local news while I'm on the treadmill. Then Good Morning America on the tv and dz.com on the computer while I'm getting ready for work in the morning. After that, I usually read the newspaper during lunch.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missg8tordivr 0 #12 October 19, 2006 I mainly just listen to AM850 to get the latest updates. When I have time at work, I will wander around on CNN, but mostly in the Tech/Science areas.*** F LORIDA! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #13 October 19, 2006 This happens to be part of my "job" now. I usually read Fox news, CNN, and HUGE assortment of "local" news sites. They usually tell me more than the crap ass "official report" they send me every morning. Throughout the day I then talk to various people around the "neighborhood" to get a feel for what the "concensus" is from differen't groups. It's fun.......and interesting. Breaks up the boredom of sitting on my ass waiting to take a trip anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebazz1 2 #14 October 19, 2006 I listen to NPR on my way to work. When I get to work after grabbing coffee I start going through my emails right away... During the day though I click on CNN.com occasionally between work and I also have a radio in my office where listen to either NPR or some local sports radio show.

tharv17 0 #15 October 19, 2006 All online, Wsj, nytimes, FT, news.bbc.co.uk, glance at google news to see what else is out there, then head to gawker.com so I can hold my own at the water cooler. Check Brookings at least once a week too. -Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
