Being back in Japan, I feel slightly out of touch and am looking for some alternatives to the big bloated news web sources. What are some alternative internet news sources that you use that I (and others on this forum) could check out?

The Onion

Actually, I just browse digg/reddit...you get a lot of news, especially political, and some interesting stuff comes up. Digg is starting to suck/turn into 4chan, though.

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?
(Epicurus)

I browse through google news reports, which of course include many different sources. I don't watch TV, and the only newspapers I read are the local one and USAToday, cause they're included in my dorm fees.

The President (2012) said:

Please proceed, Governor.

Chris Christie (2016) said:

There it is.

Elizabeth Warren (2020) said:

And no, I’m not talking about Donald Trump. I’m talking about Mayor Bloomberg.

Discovery news is about all I do. Non tech news is just lies.

I don't tend to read the news. If I do, it tends to be Time or Newsweek. I drink the kool-aid and watch MSNBC all the time, and visit MSNBC.com all the time as well.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

yahoo and baynews9.com are my primary sources for information.

QUOTE (Stalker @ Jan 23 2009, 01:09 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
So last night I was walking downtown for some pizza at like 1am with some friends of mine,
and someone said, "I'm so hungry I could eat a whole pizza."

I said, "I bet I could eat 100 pizzas," and no one understood me. I was sad.
