I just use google alerts
I type in the keyword and I get emailed a daily roundup from around the web
Helps me stay focussed on things I want to know about
I also read an Australian newsletter called the squiz. I like it because not only does it cover serious news, (and not just in Australia), but at the end of the email there are usually three or four weird headlines

I listen to the local news on a local radio station.
For national and international I run through these at least once a day:
www.bbc.com
www.aljazeera.com
scrippsnews.com
And a couple of others as the mood strikes.....
I used to use Reuters and the Wall Street Journal, but now they've got a paywall on articles.

Does anyone actually pay on those?
I mean, there are like 20 different websites that we can choose from so I don't know why they bother asking for money.
I try my best to only get it from independent journalists. With corporate news I feel I'm just getting things curated that they want me to see and they never will report on what really matters. Plus any wartime you can assume corporate news is just parroting state sponsored garbage.
That said I don't really pay attention to news much anymore.

I get news from wherever I find it. I came across one site where there were three stories about Nikki Haley. One was a news story about using the word slavery. The other two were meaningless opinions by talking heads telling me things I could figure out on my own. So called experts
facebook or youtube, only watch crimes
I don't check the news often but any website online
