Any other political/news junkies?

Post by Eric »

I'm addicted to following politics and current events. I have constant access to the internet at work, so I'll spend half of my shift checking out news sites and political blogs! For those of you like me, which blogs/news sites do you visit on a regular basis? Here are the sites I check frequently:

http://www.nytimes.com

http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com

http://www.salon.com

http://www.dailykos.com

http://www.thenation.com

http://www.slate.com

I use Google News because it automatically includes the stories from many other news sites.

I also use Google's RSS reader to simultaneously keep track of new posts on many different blogs, many of which provide useful news about topics that interest me.
