I really enjoy MinnPost (in spite of myself). Mainly because it’s well-written. It’s actually enjoyable to read. And isn’t filled up with the utter crap and syndicated b.s. they use to fluff up the dailies.

I really enjoy TC Daily Planet because they make it SO much easier to consume the neighborhood papers and ethnic media.

Of the neighborhood papers, Downtown Journal and Southwest Journal are my faves.

Twitter is my #1, primary news source for both breaking news, local happenings and random minutiae only interesting to me and the 589 people whom I follow.

That’s funny, I was just thinking yesterday how rarely I read the Pioneer Press. I use to give it a perusal atleast once a day, but lately check it about once a week.

My favorite news source? My imagination, I like to make things up.
