Re: What kinda news draws you?

I like human interest and tend to view world news alot. Aside from that I dont like politics, but you always hear it on the local news. Also like JM I like to review the Business and see whats developing and all that. But sometimes local news crime stories are so bad with youth killing, I just have to turn news off for awhile.

Re: What kinda news draws you?

I always stay tuned into the political stuff. I need to keep informed with the current state of our crazy nation. Besides that, my Grannie loved to watch the news and debate about politics/current events. Everytime I watch, I feel like a piece of her is still with me.

Re: What kinda news draws you?

Well, I loe politics, but watching them in a NEWS forum is BORING! I'd rather READ about politics! So out of the choice given, I'd have to go with trashy Hollywood stuff!

Re: What kinda news draws you?

The NJ Governor left office and confessed that he was a Gay American. His ex lover was trying to extort him, and he figured he better step down before sh!t hit the fan. Very exciting stuff! Only in dutty Jersey!

Re: What kinda news draws you?

Yea, finally got around to reading my paper and read what happened. I love Jersey though. I have some peeps in Atlantic City and they work in the casinos up there. Used to visit Newark alot when my Aunt was alive, but she pass some years now. But I love to go up there in the summer. Always had some summer friends and get the newest sounds before anyone in my area. And clothes too. Yea, it wasnt that clean, but very lively place in the city. Some good memories there.

Re: What kinda news draws you?

ANything that surrounds people, events and flesh and blood, count me in. Will debate on politics now and then, browse through the stock market arena but mostly about PEOPLE. Not into trashy news at all.
