Well, I'll say that I prefer this "de-massed" media, to broadcast, or many
print sources.  Even though, there might not be quite the same amount of
credibility, at all times, I feel that I can handle more information
online, than in various newspapers, or whatever.

I'm sure much of it has to do with the physical configuration of my
apartment, I simply don't have the space to devote to spreading out the
newspaper to read.
