I mostly prefer sports news and entertainment news. I follow a lot of the major sports leagues, NFL, NBA and some of the MLB. Another big thing I follow is the Overwatch League (OWL), an Esports league. That probably is were I consume most of my \u201cnews.\u201d To follow these things, I\u2019ll go to <a href=\"http:\/\/espn.com\">ESPN<\/a> and other small sports websites, or even the Overwatch League website itself. The <a href=\"http:\/\/overwatchleague.com\">OWL website<\/a> puts out a lot of info themselves still because there isn\u2019t as large of a market for it. ESPN will write on it weekly to bi-weekly. I can just go straight to these websites when looking for the news typically. Sometimes I will go to YouTube to watch things they\u2019ve produced. I like a good mixture of news with videos and text, still images are always nice but not needed if you have videos. And podcasts can be great for when I\u2019m on the go. I\u2019ll usually get these from <a href=\"http:\/\/spotify.com\">Spotify<\/a>,<a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\"> YouTube<\/a> (I guess these aren\u2019t true podcast), or the ESPN app. Each format is nice depending on what I\u2019m doing. I like reading articles while I work out in between sets, listening to podcasts while I either drive or do homework, and videos when I\u2019m just sitting around relaxing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\">Twitter<\/a> is an underrated form of me getting my news. Often a reporter or organization will post a report that I\u2019ll click on and take a look at. I never really commented or repost things, on twitter or any other platform. I like to just consume the information for myself and move along. On occasion I will send a link to a friend if I think they will really like it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My favorite podcast to listen to are The Dan Lebatard Show\nand PlatChat. Both are humorous sports podcasts found on ESPN and YouTube respectively.\nA lot of the stuff I\u2019m getting from these really isn\u2019t don\u2019t help me in my day\nto day life with anything besides enjoyment of their content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don\u2019t consume a lot of the so-called traditional news.
