I like to get my news from TV because it’s very convenient. When I am at home,  I always  let the TV on so that I can learn some latest news while I am doing my house chores.

My friend posts too many bad news on his Facebook account. So I don’t view those news stories at all.


I follow local news. It is about politics mostly (no fluffy stories). All news in Ukraine seems to be political. :-(

Although I’m only 16, I always try to keep up with the news from the country where I live in as well as the world news. I try to visit lots of different sites, national and foreign, and find about what do different countries think about a hot topic in Serbia, and try to look it from their perspective.

Although there is so terrible news lately, I enthusiastically keep up with news . i would much like to be source or broadcaster of the latest news ,inform people about everything ,,,national or international news , serious or fluffy stories …in fact, it doesn’t matter which sort of it ..


i think people ought to be in touch with others through readily interacting with each other indeed .that perhaps will not occur unless they take a look at news across the globe . for instance , how could I understand or build a relation with  a person living there for example in Sweden , if I haven’t taken an idea about their life style which considerably news will reflect their cultures and habits .


actually, i get news from many pipelines whether traditional or modern such as TV , of course radio during driving, internet websites , newspapers,Blackberry,sms service ,magazine and other sources like eyewitness .


  i think all fields i like to read about , political  ,social ,economic, music ,technological ,medical and astronomic . its very interesting and amazing to be well-informed . so the more news you now the more open-minded you will be i guess .
