I thought I would give this a bump with a bit of a serious question...

Mainstream News Media or Independent Reporters? 

I am asking because I see a lot of people really tearing into companies lately. Yahoo, Vox, Buzzfeed, and several others fired a lot of their writers. 

I don't care much for the news, but i have to choose. So independent reporters.

Now my turn.

Heavy Metal or Rock 'n' Roll ?

[jACKx]

This depends. I like some heavy metal and I like some rock n roll. I am more of an alternative rock fan so I guess I will have to pick rock n roll. 

Do you prefer beer or mixed drinks?

they both suck, but to pick one i'd go with independent, at least some of them try and give good news to make their living.  Mainstream puts out whatever sh*t they think will get hte most ratings, even if it's totally false.

My dilemma this morning - 

Poached or Sunny side up eggs (on fresh homemade toast)?

Independent reporters.  This allows me to focus on what I want to read about, as opposed to what corporate news interests decide they want me to think is important.

I especially enjoy reporters who engage with the audience in a professional matter.  There are too many editorialists pretending to be journalists these days just because they had a blog at some point.

Never trust a "reporter" with one anonymous source, (coughROcoughROLLINGSTONEcough). 

I also dislike me reporters who do a lot of TV engagements on talk shows.

And I loathe 'crusaders".  I want news, not causes.  Give me analysis and breakdowns instead of theories and opinions.

My this or that?

Perrier or San Pellegrino?  I know which one I prefer, but I'm curious about what others care for.

neither are as good as the tap water here, one of the benefits of living in a small town in the mountains   but since i have to pick one, which i don't think i can, that would breaking my rule of "nothing good ever comes out of a green bottle", but putting all that aside i've only had Perrier of the 2, that'd be my choice.
