I usually get the news by watching The Today Show on NBC every morning, which also includes a few minutes of local news in-between commercials. I like watching The Today Show because I can get ready for class and just listen to the TV to get the news, rather than having to take time to sit down at the computer and click and read different news headlines and articles. However, a setback to watching The Today Show to get my news is that if I miss it, I can't go back and listen to it again. On the BBC and New York Times websites, you can click on the articles and read them as much as you need to. You are also able to print them out so you can have them right in front of you whenever you need them. Also, BBC allows you to get news from all over the world. However, I find the BBC website to be a little intimidating and overwhelming. I like the New York times because, like The Today Show, you not only get the news, but the latest in health, style, entertainment, and more. I like to have a little mix of everything so that I don't get too bored by just serious news stories.
