Press releases

edit

Please be especially cautious when relying on press release material for stories. Generally these are suitable only as leads, and as source material for quotes for stories. They can also be useful in cross-checking the origin of stories published elsewhere, since it is common practice for "journalists" to quote entire sections of a press release without specific attribution, or indeed to reprint an entire press release as a story, since the PR source is certain to be supportive and it often means an early lunch for the journalist.

News aggregation sites

edit

These are sites which simply aggregate headlines from other sites. Please try to avoid linking to aggregators of poor quality here, since many "domain squatter" sites attempt to pass themselves off as aggregators, but provide links of inconsistent quality and topic.

  • Europe Media Monitor Site run by the European Commission, aggregating news from a number of parts of the world. The site allows searching by country and language of stories.
  • Google News Searchable, region categories, aggregates mainstream news sites
  • Matt Drudge's Web Site Fairly good quality, stories selected sometimes have slight right bias, first to break the Lewinsky Story
  • TheMirror.nl Primarily tech-news, stories grouped by date
  • NewsBlaze Allegedly has journalists and experts covering topics spanning "the globe" and a cross-section of news assembled from unnamed leading news agencies.
  • NewsNow UK-based aggregator, categorizing aggregated news according to countries and issues. The search capability is limited to one word searches for non-paying viewers, but most links shown available from non-pay and non-registration sources.
