The New York Post & New York Daily News

New York is still a city where the news of the day is driven by its tabloid papers.

Twitter

I catch up on any news I missed during the night on Twitter, especially from @BuzzFeedAndrew, @maggiepolitico, @AshleyRParker, @KateAurthur, @Olivianuzzi, @ZekeJMiller, and @errollouis.

Capital Playbook/POLITICO

Two can't-miss political digests that will teach you how to talk about everything from the #cromnibus spending bill to Bridgegate like a pro.

The Shade Room

The urban gossip site is revolutionary in its use of Instagram as a news-breaking medium. With the most painstaking methods I've seen, they track celebrity gossip and find stories buried in thousands of comments. Best investigative journalists in America?

BuzzFeed

Exact same weird-cat vs. hard-news ratio as my brain, communicated in a voice eerily close to my truest self.

Now with Alex Wagner

I watch this MSNBC show for my afternoon politics fix.

NY1

The local news channel, with its never-changing throwback graphics, is my eternal happy place.

@LeeRadziwill's Twitter

I can't guarantee this account is actually run by 82-year-old socialite Lee Radziwill, but who cares! It's Absolutely Fabulous meets Camelot full of #lifelessons like: "#Miami, a sunny place for shady people."

Reliable Sources

Since Brian Stelter joined CNN, this media-analysis show has been the Sunday TV I most look forward to watching.

This article appears in the March issue of Marie Claire, on newsstands now.
