Default News Links and Sites - 07-17-2007, 09:48 PM

Something I talked about with Jarrod. This thread is for posting your favorite news links and sites as a resource for people to use when posting in this forum. This thread will be great for research, current news items, or just for looking for fun things to post.

This is one of My favs, and good for pretty much everyone:
World Newspapers
World Newspapers and Magazines

That site has links to multiple news sources from just about every country in the world. Click on New Zealand for example, and there are 18 different news sites listed, including most of the big ones. Every country is like that.




Others:

The BBC rules!
BBC NEWS | News Front Page

The New York Times
The New York Times - Breaking News, World News & Multimedia

MSNBC
MSNBC - MSNBC - Breaking News World and US News Stories & Headlines - Get the Latest Business, Health, Entertainment, Sports, & Technology updates from around the world Front Page

Yahoo News
The top news headlines on current events from Yahoo! News

News of the Weird!
NEWS of the WEIRD
