I get the local news from our newspaper but often I get time only to read the headlines.
As for international news, I watch the BBC news on TV and in case I do not have time for it, I have downloaded a news app from where I get news updates. The news app was very useful to me during the flood we had recently in Kerala. Newspapers had stopped and there was no power for switching the TV. Also, our TV busted during a voltage fluctuation. We have to repair it now.
We live in a village and as you might be aware there are the village gossips who spread news, lol
Surprisingly, steemit posts and @gina notifications alerted me about news that were yet to be conveyed through apps or TV.
This might sound very unusual but I usually get my news on REDDIT and TWITTER.Yep! You read that one right, I get my news on social media platforms.
Believe it or not, REDDIT is actually a very reliable source of information. People there are very updated and their posts are mostly backed by proofs. Reddit people also seems to be non-tolerant on spam and troll accounts so the quality have been high till now.
TWITTER's#hashtag system and easy live short status updates on the other hand are the best way to gather short collective information on an ongoing and recent situation. I remember back then when an earthquake and a huge storm struck our little province, it was easy to gather updates in real time situation because of Twitter.
NEWS platforms and even Newspaper might truly be the most reliable way of getting news information, but no one is gonna wait hours and even a day just for them to publish. Sometimes, the collective knowledge and information spread by people is enough for minor and a quick update.
Well anywhere can be informative, sometimes my sources of answers can spark with conversation I've had with friends, but naturally, I get my news from my social media platforms
