>I could just keep reading a single newspaper Completely unrelated, but this is the strategy I use. I try to keep out of the news but about once a week I go to the newspaper site to read what happened. The obvious downside is that I get an extremely biased view on reality, so I try to account for that when reading the news. But this gives me the advantage of consistency. I know how they generally report things and this makes spotting 'anomalies' a little easier.
