don't find the program of much interest.

I get my news from the print world and specific writers- John Cassidy of the New Yorker, Charlie Pierce, Doyle McManus of the L.A. Times, Adam Gopnik also from the New Yorker. I read The Atlantic.

I've never even seen Morning Joe or watched the Maddow show. I do, very occasionally these days, listen to NPR. I like Tom Ashbrook's On Point.

I also read the NYT and I'm having a lot of fun reading The NY Daily News.
