Maybe there is some you like here.

What you should do is sign up for Google Reader: http://reader.google.com

Then, add all the RSS feeds to the sites you like (and the ones suggested here). This allows you to view news coming on to every site you’re interested in, and you can easily categorize it or organize it by topic, source, etc.

It really does make things way simpler.

I agree about the CNN headlines. Soemone is always “slamming” someone else. (Usually Dick Cheney is the “slammer.”) However, I do still read it as well as Yahoo and www.nytimes.com. I occasionally look at the Huffington Post too.

@janbb Yeah, I’ve wondered about that word. Slam. Where did that come from, is it a real word from the beginning or is it just made up, and why did every media outlet start to use it suddenly?
