I found a good website that contains all major English language newspapers on-line. www.world-newspapers.com is a really good resource I think. It is updated everyday & has newspaper editions from all over the world. Although, some publications require you to register before you can read them; but as far I can see the service is free. You can view newspapers from all five continents, with many regional publications aswell (such as “Dublin People”, “Kerryman”, etc.) You can also view papers from all 50 states in the US. It seems to be a really good tool for journalisits in general & brings the world’s newspapers to your desktop.
