News Sources

• The Washington Post
• The New York Times
• CNN Yech
• MSNBC Fox News wannabe. Worse than yech.
• Sky News British cable news outlet. As bad as Fox News
• BBC World News Includes streaming radio
• DSL-TV Want to watch a live stream of BBC World TV? Maybe you want the German view -- how about Deutsche Welle TV? Or EuroNews TV, a news channel consortium based in Paris? This is the site, but it is for web wizards only (and a broadband connection). Based in the Netherlands, this site only works if it thinks you are in the Netherlands. No problem: just find a Free Proxy Server in the Netherlands, and then change your Explorer connection setting to the proxy server (Tools|Internet Options|Connection|LAN Settings...|Proxy Server). Using either RealOne Player or Windows Media Player, you'll get a very solid streaming video.
• TV4All Another way to look at television from around the world, including a live stream of BBC News TV and al-Jazeera
• Ha'aretz - English Edition Reliable Israeli Daily. For the Hebrew Edition, you'll need Hebrew fonts
• Slate Consistently timely and superior insight
• DEBKAfile "Insider" report from 2 former Economist journalists based in Jerusalem. Often way ahead of the pack; just as often misses the mark
• The Guardian Respected British paper from the "Left." Excellent on-line presence, including this Weblog.
• The Times of London Online Respected British paper from the "Right." Only some parts available for free, the rest requires a paid subscription.
• The Daily Telegraph Online British paper; good military analysis by their Defence editor John Keegan
• World Press Review, Mideast section and World Press Review, Mid-East Newspapers for a view from the region
• Al-Jazeera in English went live on 3/25/03; Al-Jazeera Online Based in Qatar, you'll need Arabic fonts for this one.
• Al-Bawaba - Middle East News
• Al-Hayat - English, also Dar Al-Hayat London-based pan-Arab daily, quite good, but you'll need Arabic for the latter, more complete site
