I hate watching Bloomberg TV, next time you watch it count how many times they say: "Bring up that Bloomberg chart," or "Look at this chart," and take a shot.

26 Broadway where's your sense of humor?
 

In the morning I check bloomberg and read their "Five Things You Need to Know to Start Your Day" and whatever articles look interesting. Then I load up WSJ and go through the sections and load up a bunch of tabs with whatever I want to read and read articles sporadically throughout the day.

Other than that I get notifications from random news sources sent to my phone and might glance at CNN or CNBC but WSJ is where I get the bulk of my news.

I also check SeekingAlpha but more so for news on a specific stock

If you miss the entire week (say, go on holiday or something), then this site does a quality, and occasionally quite funny, weekly news round-up... QFinance: http://www.qfinance.com/blogs

here's an example: http://www.qfinance.com/blogs/qfinance-editor/2011/08/05/a-week-in-the-…

I think the whole concept of linking the stories of the week together in episodic fashion is a great idea. It's even good to read if you have been on your game following finance and business news, just to see all the big developments over the last week
