I follow local emergency services on Twitter for alerts in my area. If shit gets real, all I want to know is where to avoid. Don't need to sit and gawk at CNN to get all the gossip.
I reach out to instructors/professors and discuss the work of those that reply (usually in STEM). Occasionally receiving copies of papers that are paywalled after being "officially" published.
Why do we need an aggregator like CNN, where a bunch of paid shills, spin out of context quotes leaving it no more useful than Facebook anyway? If you believe CBS Evening News and the rest haven't been propaganda mills all these years, I know of a bridge...
It's trivial to find the useful information if you want to know what's happening around you. And it can often, if not always, be had straight from the horses mouth.
