"The NewsInsider - Daily source for under-reported news and analysis" is even better than its name! Hit "global links" for country-by-country listings of news agencies, alternative press outlets, policy-related publications, and selected newspapers. Conservatives, your official .gov World News Connection is "down for maintenance." What gives? For news in all formats, including broadcasts and webcasts, hit Gary Price's List of Lists, the unofficial front page for the web. Top portals for subject-related info and in-depth fact checking are SLA Toronto and the Librarian's Index to the Internet.

I'm sharing a few of the top links that a reference librarian would use to find news and news-related information. Any feedback on how these sites work would be much appreciated.

Are there other sites like this people ought to know about?

Excellent! I especially like the Librarian's Index to the Internet.
