Re: Interesting News Topics?
I am a political junkie. Don't know why, but I could veg out in front of CNN all day long and be perfectly happy. It's weird, I know. But Washington is like a big catty soap opera and I just can't get enough of it.

Re: Interesting News Topics?
How could anyone not love that southern bell charm? I'm a fan of all things bazaar. Probably because I am just that, but aren't we all? Please tell me it's not just me.
I enjoy the absurdities in life, so I like my news just the same. However, if I'm in a serious mood, I too, will tune into CNN. I'm not particularly investment savvy, but I really like Jim Cramer's Mad Money. It's so high energy and I can actually understand what he's talking about. I can't understand the crawling stock ticker at the bottom of the screen, but I understand his craziness. I'm not sure if other cities are alike, but my cable network has a 24 hour news channel that is extremely helpful when I don't feel like sitting through an entire segment to get to what I want to know. They report everything from world news to local, and also give weather updates every ten minutes. Needless to say, living in Florida, I become a weather junkie during hurricane season. |

Re: Interesting News Topics?
I love business development news and politics. Just learning the ins and outs of our local market is fascinating (and helpful with professional development)!
I also like the bizarre news stories - I don't think I'll ever get bored with those! |

Re: Interesting News Topics?
I scan USA Today daily as well as Business Week and the Washington Post. And also ditto Chrissy about CNN.
Since I am speaker and trainer, I am always looking for interesting stories about ethics in the workplace, leadership articles, etc. I'm also an NPR fan. All Things Considered, Fresh Air, etc. Great progamming. |
