News Organisations  

When you're thinking about resources at A-level (as you no-doubt do), news organisations of various types and descriptions are an obvious source of material - not just for current affairs (which is always useful), but also for their archive material. Having access to a searchable database of materials is, I've found, extremely useful for students engaged in various types of project work (whether this involves using the material for background or doing semiological or content-type analyses). In addition, newspapers often carry reports on social research studies, government initiatives and policies and the like that can be used alongside textbooks as a source of up-to-date material.

In this section, therefore, I've compiled a list of newspaper, journal and broadcasting sites I think contain potentially useful information. You will need to be aware, of course, that much of the material will not be immediately accessible, but a little searching will usually produce something of value.

Outside of the basic categories noted above, I haven't included any specific details about each of the sites on this page, mainly because their content constantly changes and there should be enough information here for you to decide whether or not a site is potentially useful for your search purposes...

To search for free newspapers, broadcasters and magazines on-line, some of the best General Links sites are:
News and Newspapers Online One of the biggest and best "news sites". Has the added advantage of including brief overviews of publications (content, language, etc.).
The Paperboy This is a huge site containing links to newspapers, broadcasters and magazines across the world.
Virtual Newspaper Contains a massive range of links to newspapers across all five continents. These are well-indexed and easy to link to.
