News, Next weeks, and Newton

Well, I am almost done with my fourth week of classes. Next week I will have my first physics exam and probably a paper due for my composition class. So this weekend is going to be a little busy for me. As those of you that know me well know, I am very interesting in politics and news in general, so I thought it would be fun for me to write a blog post about my news sources. Over that past year I have found a number of websites that combine give a well rounded information net. So here are my news sources and the reasons I use them.

Fox News http://www.foxnews.com/
I read this because in general it is more conservative than the other big news sources. They also have a great collection of different kinds of news. I always check out the health and science sections.

Klove News http://www.klove.com/news/
I read this news site because it is great for finding things of Christian interest. It is basically just a bunch of links to other sites, but they pull out things that maybe hidden on the back page but have special interest to the Christian world.

IMDB's news from Wenn http://www.imdb.com/news/
I read this news site because I know that this is the news that so many people my age care about. Many people don't care about politics, but the most recent Hollywood scandal. So I try to keep up on what other people know about. There are also some strange things that occasionally come up about politics, world views, and Christianity.

The Drudge Report http://www.drudgereport.com/
If you haven't found this news source you don't know what you are missing. This is my first stop in the morning before classes. It has everything from politics, the economy, to the latest science technology. Did I mention it is extremely conservative. I usually check Drudge Report three to four times per day.

I also read what my dad fondly calls "the local rag". Even at school I like to keep up with what is going on at home. This is also the only Newspaper I have ever been published in (letters of the editor), so it will always have a special place in my heart. Not, I really only read this to keep up with the news at home, since the NR is strongly left leaning.


Cheers!
