Help please : Blog recommendations? - To replace cable TV . . . . |
|
I'm about ready to get rid of my TV. I REALLY can't stand it anymore.
Can anyone recommend some blogs for me to look at to get the news etc.? I want something truly professional, a balanced presentation of positives and negatives on all issues. Is there such a thing?

3. While I can't stand his opinions |

Andrew Sullivan's blog is pretty even-handed in the stories he presents. But be warned, he's an odd creature (a gay Republican neo-con who wants to raise taxes and who doesn't like Bush). www.andrewsullivan.com
You might also try www.wonkette.com. Kind of gossipy, but easy to read.

11. I wouldn't recommend Atrios to anyone. Little or no commentary. |
