shadowkatDoes anyone really read posts on the weekends, besides me? Since I can't read them during the week? And how often do you actually respond to the posts you read? Do you read or do a quick scan? How often do you regret the responses you've made and wish you could retract it like an errant email before it gets read as opposed to merely deleting? To what degree are you immersed in politics? Where do you get your information? What information do you trust as reliable, what don't you trust? And do your question your views or just hunt for information that reinforces it?
I ask too many questions. It's not that I want to know so much as I want to understand. It's why I've taken psychology classes at different points and read the books - the attempt to understand how others think and how I think. Seldom works. Except when I force myself to step outside my own perspective completely.
Anywho...here is a poll, that I'm doubtful will get many responses since I'm posting it at 9:45 pm on a Sat morning and not during the work week - when many people are surfing to deal with boredom/downtime at work. Then again, I may be wrong about that - perhaps there are few out there like myself who do? If so, please take a moment. Also if you can link to it that would be great...more responses the better.
[In hindsight, I should have probably put "All of the Above" as a category for one of those entries...oh well.]

Date: 2008-09-14 06:22 pm (UTC)I have a friend who uses it primarily as her news source. Radio reception is horrid in my apartment unfortunately, so haven't listened to it very often. Tend to listen to it more when I visit my family in Hilton Head (parents love it) and when I used to drive in Kansas City.
NPR isn't as biased as many conversatives believe, as you state above, it does bring in credible speakers from both sides of the fence. I think William S. Buckley used to do commentary on it, could be wrong about that.
