AJR Newslink provides "18,000 links to newspapers, magazines,
broadcasters and news services worldwide." This joint venture
of American Journalism Review and NewsLink Associates has a section
called "Digital Feed" (which includes online-only columns
by new-media experts and original content of special interest to
readers of online news) and a section titled "Bylines"
(to update the journalism community on personnel changes.) This
site is a must for journalists, news junkies, communication students,
reference librarians and those who simply want to stay in touch
through their hometown newspaper. The very comprehensive "Resources"
section includes links to journalism organizations, publishers and
academic resources, new-media newsletters, media reports and marketing
research, WWW Search tools, and starting points for journalists
including broadcasting and photojournalism. This is an impressive
gateway site to everything related to journalism.

Marius Kazokaitis, Vilnius, Lithuania. Reviewed 5 March 2002.
This site covers world newspapers online and news sites in English
and also links to selected online magazines arranged under broad
subject. According to its creators, "this non-profit and non-partisan
web site was initiated by the group of freelance journalists to
provide our colleagues as well as readers worldwide with reliable
information about international news sources," a key goal being
to provide access to current resources around the world not included
in similar sites. Online newspapers are listed by country under
region. Annotated lists of selected news sources are also included
under broad categories such as world news, business, Internet, sports,
weather, news photos, personalized news (including news by email),
and alternative news.
