Anyone Here Still Read the Newspaper (in print or online)?

If so, which one(s) do you read? If you don't read a paper, what are your main sources for news?
I haven't bought a print newspaper in years, but I check the washingtonpost.com pretty much daily. It has great political coverage and is the closest "national" newspaper to Virginia.
My office has print subscriptions to our local daily and to the Wall Street Journal, so I usually at least scan the front page of those.

Yep. WSJ and the local paper. Bloomberg is a great mag.

I enjoy reading the San Antonio Express News (my old hometown newspaper) online. Their Spurs coverage is what I'm mostly after, but they have some good columnists, too, IMHO. If I ever get to move back to that area I'd probably get it in print, too.
Only newspaper I'd do that for, though.

I read it if it's sitting there and I'm bored

If I forget my phone when I go to the work shitter, they have a stack of newspapers. The only time I ever pick one up anymore.

NYT and FT.
Read the local city weekly to get a feel for what's going on around town.

Just canceled my subscription with the Chicago Tribune.

I do. I subscribed to the Birmingham News since '85 but let it expire when they went to their insane 3 day format. I buy there's now at a c-store and the Tuscaloosa News on M,T,and Th. Saturday I just pass. 
Cannot stand al.com's website and wouldn't give the jerks the satisfaction of using my renewal as one of their 'subscribers'. I know losing my subscripition will kill them, but it made me feel better.

I'll read the sports section of the Plainsman on occasion during football season, but that's about it

Each morning I scan the local paper then on the iPad: Al.com, The Advocate in Baton Rouge, Nola.com app, and the Clarion Ledger. Usually hit up the Washington Post or NY Times at some point too.
I'm a news junkie.

I do...usually the detroit papers and occasionally the usa today.

I read the baton rouge advocate...Those who don't read the newspaper are going to have a skewed sense of reality because they will only search and read online what interests them, limiting exposure to all points of view...IMHO

New York Times and the Washington Post

the Advocate for LSU sports

I check the Crimson White's website everyday and look at the NYT's Number Play math puzzle blog once a week.

WSJ

I go to AL.com and check it 1-2 a day. Good way to stay up on what is going on locally.
