My favorite is Edhat, particularly for emergency news, and as a community blog. But I like Noozhawk for its straightforward government and law enforcement reports; the Independent for its indepth political backgrounders, columnists and calendar. I even look at the News-Press front page online, not for news, but for morning humor. I read the Daily Sound police blotter and like one of its columnists. I don’t bother with KEYT.
Shouldn’t trust the View’s readers to pick favorite media. Look how many already voted for the horrible News-Press. And where’s the Daily Sound? Other? Go back to complaining about building heights.
The Daily Sound is gone Sufer dude. The newspress is still lead dog in this town just ask any writer who has written for the multiple pubs. 150 years of service will do that.
KEYT is the comedy channel. It’s a shame that we’re subjected to interns hosting bumbling skits in high def. The SB Indy is a comic book. All fiction, all the time.

A news station should technically have hired reporters; Professional ones.
