Mostly RSS for me, incidentally there is a publlic rss api on reddit. You can add .rss to any subreddit URL to get a feed. It's a nice way to get news from there without actually having to use reddit.

I prefer listening to stuff in the backgroind over reading so: Electric intifada, empire files, secular talk, Lee camp, and various other left wingers.

Tea leaves are pretty competitive these days.

Personally I don't like reading news very much, I just keep various live news feeds up in the background while I do other things. Typically Al Jazeera English, but they rerun segments pretty often throughout the day, at which point I'll just turn it off, or switch over to CGTN. Occasionally I'll watch MSNBC or CNN if they aren't being ultra cringe (rare occurrence) for more US focused coverage, though I can hardly stand to watch either for very long.
