There are of course a number of different ways a person can stay informed when it comes to global events, but perhaps the best way is to read two newspapers a day--each with a slightly different "spin" on the events at hand so you don't develop a bias.
Although there are many different ways to stay informed, the most effective way is to look at different news sources constantly. This is because every source of information would have slightly different information and a slightly different perspective on an issue. By consulting several ones, a citizen can make sure he has access to a variety of different opinions that complement each other.
