do you watch the news?
 

I used to watch the news all the time, but recently I just don't seem to watch it, I know practically nothing about the world's recent goings on. It's quite embarrassing actually, I blame Big Brother.

Sort it out fruity :nono:

I listen to the news on the radio

Nope, doesn't interest me. I rarely ever watch TV anyway.

If anything serious is happening social sites/forums soon fill me in.

Big Brother takes over my life, I'm such a saddo

Don't think I've ever chosen to watch it, have obviously seen it a few times when my mum or someone else has put it on, but that's it.

I remember when 9/11 happened I was glued to the telly then, but now, never

Looks like you're on the right forum then :tongue:

hehe you're right joe :pipe:

Very rarely

Phone hacking/banking/the eurozone stuff bores the **** out of me, and if it's not that, someone's died

So depressing

Nar the news and Media as a whole are ridiculous 95% of the time.

I clicked the wrong poll option - my apologies.

I only watch it if something worthy of my time happens, not all this Eurozone/banking tedium, as Marc said.

It's annoying the way they barely ever have anything happy to say.

it can be useful to fill in half an hour, here, or there

all the time and i read newspapers too. i like to see wots going on everywhere not just under my nose. Im interested in current affairs.

I don't really watch normal TV - I record everything I watch - so no. But if I've watched all my recorded programmes and nothing else is on, I just stick on the news for background noise.

don't watch the news, but read newspapers & websites

Yes, 2 or 3 times a day

But now we have Choice of 15 News stations
so watching France24 or RT or FoxNewsHD or SkyNewsHD
is great as you get a Much bigger Outlook
than say Omah who trusts the BBC.



Even Bloomberg is Great
finding out more in depth
than say the Bloated BBC could ever do


CNCWorld is Great new one

Yes I do. I believe it's important to stay abreast of what's happening in the World.

Yeah, i usually have the radio on in my car so I hear it on that, gav usually has it on when I get home from work too, though if he didn't turn it on I probably wouldn't

You are most wise

I agree, I wish I were more abreast of the daily goings on

Niamh, you need to be more abreast of the goings on in the world :nono:

Sometimes but I get annoyed at the injustice of alot of the things that gets reported on the news channels so I stay away most of the time.

I watch BB news every night though, does that count? :amazed:

I c yes.
