IMHO, you can't really do it this way, unless you read a dozen or so well-chosen papers and spend way too much time on TV. That is, if you wish to have anything more than a cursory understanding of how event have developed.

That said, I do read five papers a day and a couple of weeklies (like the Economist). I don't have much use for television and their terrible reporting (with a very few exceptions).
