Default What websites do you read for news?

This is related to the 'what podcasts do you listen to' thread. For a year, I got my news mainly from podcasts - if you check the podcast thread I'm subscribed to quite a few news podcasts. But I want to start reading more, and start using iTunes to listen to more music. I want to start getting more of my news from news websites and RSS feeds. I'm interested in local, national, world, sports, and financial news mainly. I'm subscribed to

Chicago Tribune - local, national, international, financial and sports (good for local news and sports, I feel the coverage for everything else is lacking)
ESPN
and
Time magazine

RSS feeds.

which do you subscribe to? There are so many national and world news sources, I'd like to subscribe only to the best ones.

I'm a news junkie. I regularly check Digg, CNN, BBC, Al-Jazeera, The Guardian, Christian Science Monitor, DEBKAfile, Business Week, NYTimes, Wall Street Journal, among many others. They all seem to balance each other nicely to help give a more objective perception.
