I'm genuinely interested. There are so many conservative news sites out there, I'm curious to see which one(s) you prefer.
There are a lot more out there than just the conservative ones too. Reuters is good.. I like my local papers, and I also generally surf both google news & yahoo news for interesting headlines. Really, though I get a lot of my fastest news via facebook and twitter via links to all sorts of websites.
The only real newspaper left is the Wall Street Journal, and I like reading actual papers (it's relaxing, you can sit back comfortably, and re-read those things that you want to make sure you are undersanding it all, and it is convenient just to pick it up again and read some more).
On the internet I go from CNN to FOX to get news from both sides (ignogoring the political slanted crap from both).
TV is the worse....Cable CNN and cable Fox are a waste of time - though in the mornin there is some actual news on CNN. The local stations are mostly commercials, weather and traffic in the morning with about 7 - 10 minutes of actual news.
Depends on what I want news for. I typically read more Washington Post articles, Huffington Post, and local newspaper articles online. If I'm really curious about something, BBC or Al-Jazeera English. As far as TV goes, CNN, HLN, or Bloomberg- Fox and MSNBC **** me off, a lot.
The one thing I have noticed about American televised news on the major networks is that there are times where there is little to no slant, you just have to know when to tune in, i.e. I refuse to watch MSNBC or Fox in the evenings, but they're fine in the mornings (because mornings are just news/entertainment, evening shows are usually debate/opinion/talk shows.)
I rarely read anything from Breitbart or The Blaze, I don't trust them, just like I don't trust Daily Kos or whatever the other ones are.
I consider myself socially liberal and fiscally conservative, I'm only hardline on a few things on either side. I take pride in being fairly moderate- and also in getting both sides of a story before I make a decision.
