1. thehill.com, to see if anything stupid has happened in the US.
2. HN
3. NYT.com, to see if anything stupid of world wide importance has happened, and to see clips of late night comedy.
4. Random, but at this point I've usually had enough.
NPR used to be in there, but as a liberal I've grown tired of their liberal bias and leading question that's really a statement or accusation style of interview.
For worldwide coverage: The Economist, which I prefer to read on paper. For national news: A daily newspaper. For local news: Another daily newspaper. The daily papers I read on my smartphone.
What I like about the economist is that it covers news from many places you'd otherwise unlikely to hear much about unless you are really interested in it or the job requires to know. What I didn't like at the end that there were too many 'vanilla' articles,where I read them and feel that it could be done more in-depth rather than just scratching the surface. Also felt lack of time to read it as much as I'd like. I may revisit it in the future.
I have lists created by me for various topics that interests me. I constantly keep adding/removing based on signal/noise from the people/handles in those list.
I don't really follow general news. If something is important enough for me to need to know about, it'll pop up on HN, my limited Reddit feed, or via friends. Works really well for me and makes sure I don't focus on things that are out of my control.

I have subscribed a lot of small websites and blogs witch fill out niche interests for me.
I use a RSS Reader called inoreader.com . It can also notify me about YouTube videos etc. and websites that do not support RSS.

4) A few news portals in my native Language.
5) Wired( when I'm completely bored and don't have anything else to read)
