I get new from more than 900 sources online, and some off line. One of my feed is 984 sources. My list of news and information sites is more than ten pages.
Filters help break down and categorize my news but I still spend quite a bit of time reading and sharing news. I run four news papers and several blogs and a few other human interests spots to pin stories on a dozen topics.
I care about the middle east, it was my home, my heritage, my friends, my family. It used to be my work.
I got used to reading papers from around the world while very young.
During the war, sometimes there was little else to do but read and re-read every paper and book you can lay your hands on. Even when we had electric, we only had a couple hours of programing each evening of TV.
I wish everyone would read more, not just message board or propaganda sites. Read every point of view. There is usually some small items of truth in almost everything.
I rarely find any side of an issue, be it politics, religion or law, that is totally right. You listen or read and try to understand the issue as a whole.
Arabic papers from every country in the middle east and many others from around the world. Arab, Israeli, African, European, Asian, etc., I enjoy reading them all, or as many as a can during the day when I sit and relax.
I care about what is happening, so I always want to know the latest be it from the news or from people right there.
Does a bear shit in the woods? Aris reads everything.
Aris barely reads while shitting in the (kosher) woods?
