So you’re surfing the net and you want to have a look at the news. Where do you go?
Here’s a list of the 30 Most Popular News Websites for the month of August. Many of these might be among your more frequently-visited sites. At the very least, they may help get you thinking about possible answers for this week’s question.
This week’s question is simple: list your seven favorite episodes of the classic series. If you need help finding your favorites, visit tv.com’s episode listing!
- First to play last week: Mika of Mika Salakka. Congratulations!
(According to the rules, “First to Play” requires you to be the first to include the link to the specific entry in which you answered the questions, not just the general link to your blog.)
Here is this week’s “Sunday Seven” question. Either answer in a comment here, or put the answers in an entry on your blog (with a link here), and then comment here with a link back to your blog so that everyone else can visit!

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION:
Name the seven news websites you’ve been visiting most often this year.
Either answer the question in a comment or answer it in your journal and include the link in a comment. (To be considered “first to play,” a link must be to the specific entry in which you answered the question.) You may include this link in the URL space when leaving your comment, or in the comment itself. As long as it’s there in one spot or the other.

2. MSNBC
3. The Huffington Post
4. BBC

3. Salon

5. The Hill
6.WaPo
7. NYT
This was tough, Patrick. I needed more than seven options. Christian Science Monitor, WSJ, The Guardian (UK),–and most major dailies.
I usually get all my online news through my RSS reader, Google Reader. The top feeds I rely on for news are…
1. The New York Times
2. The Washington Post
3. various Chattanooga Times-Free Press feeds (for local news)
4. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (for Georgia news)
5. The Nashville Tennessean (for Tennessee news)
6. memeorandum (for important political stories and rantings across the blogosphere)
7. MSNBC (serves the same infotainment purpose as CNN and other sites, but the feed is more managable.
I also regularly read the feeds from Think Progress, Truthdig, and Undernews (Progressive Review) for left-leaning news and views, various sports news sites like ESPN, and various news oriented blogs.
I’ve used many other news feeds in the past, but have struggled to keep my reading list from overwhelming me.
Leave your response!
