I watch all three (FNC, MSNBC, CNN) but prefer MSNBC. Our local news market is strange. We are in 3 different ones (Springfield, MO, Joplin, MO, and Fayetteville, AR) so I watch KYTV (NBC in Springfield), KOAM (CBS in Joplin) and KHBS (ABC in Fayetteville) just depending on my mood. ;)

Same here - and probably only once every few days. Since most of the news is bad, I would prefer to watch something funny.

FoxNews, MSNBC, and then maybe CNN. Sometimes, when all three are carrying the same press conference, speech, or what have you, I flip through to see which one is getting the best audio.

Locally, I was KTRK ABC-13 in Houston, even though I don't really care much for ABC (except for 8 Simple Rules) or CBS otherwise. And I watch The Today Show on NBC in the morning while getting ready for work.

WBEN News Radio 930. Don't have a TV and don't watch it. I also go to Foxnews.com, washingtonpost.com (my hometown paper) and the Drudge Report.

I have a TV. It's a glorified PS2/GC/Nintendo/DVD video screen. We don't watch public programming... :)

Storm2K, the only place for late breaking news. Seriously, I find out more here than anywhere.

I watch Fox News, especially Studio B. Shepard Smith is unique. Locally, I watch our NBC affiliate, WOWT Ch 6, and like the NBC Today Show.

BUT...Don't bother watching the CBS station, KMTV Channel 3RD (local joke). They don't have much of a website, and they pulled their 6:00pm news for an entertainment show.

Once during a tornado warning last May, WOWT did a superb job, while the guy or gal on KMTV appeared to be on another galaxy.
