After spending many years in the media in both TV and radio and being married to a (former) TV news producer with a background in print journalism and PR, I can tell you that these days it (sadly) doesn't matter much where you get your news since with the exception of local news, it all comes from the same place... the Associated Press. Large markets, small markets, internet, radio, television, print, local, national, international... almost everyone is a subscriber/contributor these days.
