What's your media diet?
One of the best things about this blog is the mini-debates that take place each day.
Sure, I hope my posts are generally a good read, but the comments can take on a life of their own.
Sometimes the arguing gets a bit too sharp-edged, but generally the regulars on this blog tend to stick to the facts.
Let's just say I think there are some pretty sharp media consumers out there among those who comment regularly on this blog.
So here's a chance for all of us to exchange notes and tips on where we get our real estate and business news from and how we value these different sources of information.
My media diet is fairly conventional, though hopefully broader than when I started writing this blog nearly two years ago.
I read the two local dailies each day, as well as our two local business weeklies, one of which, Banker & Tradesman, I write a weekly column for. The Wall Street Journal provides some great coverage - both in stories and on its blogs, while the Times also has some good blogs and some interesting trend pieces.
Speaking of blogs, Calculated Risk is one of the best out there, both for general economic news and takes on the latest real estate trends.
Frankly, I do a lot of searching on Google News - which is a useful media aggregator.
And on any particular day I am doing my own reporting on any number of real estate or business pieces for several different print and online publications.
That's my media diet - what's yours?
