Reading the New York Times has been an informative process for me. Before, I would occasionally watch the news (when I’m at home and dinner is just about ready) and browse Yahoo News multiple times a day. But I feel that reading the New York Times is slightly more credible and more informative on pressing national and world matter such as the Republican Primaries. I’m not saying Yahoo News is bad or irrelevant, but I feel more informed about more important matters by reading the New York Times. I love reading the random stories about giant sharks washing up on shore or what careers are best for shy people but I feel somewhat smarter knowing that I could have an somewhat intelligent conversation with someone about the Republican Primary candidates.
Also, since reading the New York Times regularly, I have notice I visit other reputable online news sites such as BBC and The Boston Globe.com just to read stories form a different perspective and to stay connected to what’s happening locally.
That's great that reading the NY Times is getting you to check other sources, too. It is interesting to see the difference in coverage and approach.
