Jack Haldeman: Online Newspapers
Online Newspapers

What can I say? I'm a news junkie.


No, I don't read all of these all the time. I keep them handy for various reasons. Sometimes I use them for research in my writing. I also like to keep up with places I've lived or visited. If I'm headed someplace, I'll often check things out before I leave.

Sometimes it helps to get a local slant on a news story, an opposing view, or an international viewpoint. Mostly I'm just curious.
