I don't have a TV at home, and this is a conscious decision - as I deal with moving images all day at work, I like a break from them when I get home. Of course I don't really get one, because I do a lot of video-based work on my PC - editing clips of archive footage for broadcasters, public and education screenings, that sort of thing - as well as watching DVDs that way.
Radio (Britain's main public service broadcasting speech station, Radio Four, has extensive news and current affairs coverage, the only downside being what is in my opinion its very strong political bias), Internet and newspapers are where I generally get my current affairs from. If there's a TV broadcast I really want to see, I can always ask the University library at work to record it for me (we do this for programmes that use any of our footage as a matter of routine), or a friend.
As for Katrina, think I probably found out more about it more quickly through online news sources than if I relied on the TV.
