WHERE DO I GET MY INFO?

Among some of the sillier comments the politics threads have spawned (What could I possibly know because I’m “only” a comic book writer. And George W. Bush is only a failed businessman and Ronald Reagan was only an actor and Harry Truman was only some haberdasher, because one aspect of someone’s life completely dictates all other aspects, right?) there was a fairly reasonable question as to my news sources.

It’s eclectic. I read Newsday, the NY Daily News, Time, Newsweek, watch CNN, the Daily Show. But the one I’ve come to find the most informative is a magazine called “The Week.” Quite simply, it’s a weekly news magazine that beautifully sums up everything of major importance that’s gone on in the previous week, presenting viewpoints from all sides in brisk, even-handed fashion. I strongly recommend subscribing to it if your local newsstand doesn’t carry it.
