I just wanted to complain that I go to CNN.com everyday and there isn't even much to read because 90% of their headlines take you to a video. Each video has to not only load, but put you through a 15 or 30 second commercial before getting to what you want. I'd rather read and skim through.

So, I think I'm done with them. It will suck having to type out a more complicated url to get to my news, but what other news sites do you folks recommend?

I go to Yahoo and look at their news feeds...all videos are on a separate area and they always have an article for both national, world, and city news, if you set preferences.

I also hate the videos and such.

I use MSNBC.com, not allot of video at all and good content. When CNN changed their webpage about a year ago is when I stopped using them.

CNN has changed the layout of their site. I'm glad they listen to me.

http://www.cnn.com/

It's much more visually pleasing, and videos are separated.

I go to Reuters for my news source. The Drudge Report is nice too.
