BBC or GMA?

I usually start my weekday mornings with a shower, a cup of coffee and Good Morning America on ABC. It's an entertaining way to get the latest news, but also new and interesting products, technological advances, and controversial news stories. Sometimes I get news from the Yahoo homepage and click on stories when the headlines really catch my eye.
When looking at the BBC and NYTimes websites, it was very different than watching TV or even looking at the local newspaper. I found it incredibly overwhelming to look at everything on the BBC website, but I did realize that I should be keeping up with the news around the world more often. I really enjoyed the NYTimes website, even though there was so much to look at, but I really enjoyed the style and entertainment sections and even found myself looking for archived fashion articles and looking up sections in the archives like during 9/11/01. It's amazing how much is on one website, but for right now I think I'll stick to GMA and look at BBC or NYTimes when I need a worldly view of things.
