Are you habituated and happy to read the morning newspaper, before you start your daily routine work or do you rely on the TV, internet, Radio etc.?
It is quite important, yes. A paper is something to be read slowly and digested and is also a good way of guaging other people's opinions. GOOD TV news should be neutral and avoid opinion (so that's Fox f*cked).
Not important to me. We only get one once a week to get the free TV guide. Not that we really have much time for TV anyway. Just background noise sometimes to working online. My husband sometimes tells me news snippets he reads online. I generally am content to just read DP (that's where my important news comes from ) and get on with my website work.
i wake up late, but then i always check the paper and read it for an hour before getting into any other work! sports pages are sure my favs, but then i read the complete newspaper! i also check the online versions of the papers, and read them on the monitor! cheers
