You'll find below a panoplia of tools that will allow you to gather
quickly the most (or less) recent NEWS on a given thema, no matter its "kind", sensitivity or
geographical location. Yet of course, in a world where almost all
information sources are OWNED by the slavemasters, your only hope to gather some real info
depends from your ability to "reconstruct" it yourself. Hence the importance of the
ARCHIVED information, and of "older" news (historia docet). To find (some rare snippets of) REAL info, you better check the
[behind the propaganda engines], and especially the
[rare snippets of real info]
subsections.

of the very disinformation that all newspapers and news services present you.

VARIOUS NEWS FEEDS Note that not all news services where created equal...
See the above comments in order to recognize the
few [valuable sources of information].
The following links will dig out mostly abominable crap, but with some (rare) snippets of truth inside huge and
quite frankly disgusting propaganda mountains.
[FAST (Alltheweb) news]
(The BEST: updates news every hour & refresh its whole database every week, use the above form, which has been 'cleaned' from all the webbugs that
Yahoo¡, the new masters of Alltheweb, have imposed.)
Use the form above!
Note that not all news services where created equal... here is vvf's clever comment, a
day after the introduction
of google's "new" beta news service: "Sure thing. FAST gives 28 returns on Gadamer (he recently died at age 102), albeit most in German, while goggle gives just 1 (in English).
So much for comparison and interpretation of sources :)"
REUTER feeds
(only the last 14 days)
Search the last two weeks' news, from Reuters Reuters frequently
sends out multiple versions, and most of these articles were not published in
the newspapers. To browse the complete wire, just hit "go."
Articles appear in chronological order.
To find words used together in an article, put "quote marks" around the entire phrase.
NEWSPAPERS SEARCH ENGINE Do not, I repeat, do not underestimate the power of
subsidiarity searching
Of course being able to read any newspapers of the world does not mean much if you don't know how
to filter out the very rare snippets of information and and to recognize the
few [valuable sources of information] that
are not simple progandistic megaphones of their owners' interests. This said it is
for sure
quite instructive
to learn that slightly different soups of commercial advertisement,
hysterical nationalism & ridicolous propaganda are served - under all latitudes -
to the zombies...
Something more... how do you check WHICH are the most important newspapers for a given country? (Not that "the most important
newspapers of a given country" were
the most informative, duh, nevertheless...) Do a search with the engine above for --say-- Australia, and you get PAGES of newspapers.
You may use a searchstring like the following (for --say-- Australia): "national australian newspaper", of
course you may refine ad hoc with linguistic variations: "il più importante quotidiano italiano".
ARCHIVED ARTICLES Goldmines of references...
A simple question: do we have --on the web-- newspapers that
offer all their archived
articles for free? Alas! Most newspapers now offer only a chronological
selection (a couple of weeks) or
a short summary,
and mostly
demand money
in order to access their archives. This is indeed a very stupid business model,
since readers will at once
find OTHER newspapers (with
a better business model), or may even
(and pretty easily) hack, pull from the hat
or guess
their password schemes ;-) There are some
exceptions, listed below. Come to think of it, I
reckon there will be many more archives accessible in toto
as soon as those "managers" that do not understand a zilch (you know,
those "Core Business" & "Free Content Becoming Thing of the Past"
zombies) will be overruled or -better- hanged.
The answer to the "simple question" above is YES!
...enjoy the following list of complete,
(or crippled but still
useful), archives.
"Guardian and Observer articles since September 1, 1998. "Verity" -type search engine" - "We have no plans to introduce a charge to read Guardian articles online" (April 2004)
DAILY:
very UK-centric, but quite good foreign politic analysis. Has the advantage to be in english and to have
one of the best cartoonists of the world (Steve Bell). If you just manage to avoid all the useless
crap about england,
this is a good font of all-around information.
The Economist (> 1997 - very short excerpts:
"premium" articles crap)
The Economist's search modules have a NorthernLight type engine that can be quite useful for
quick references and 'angles' fishing purposes... Unfortunately their crap "premium articles"
business model renders the good search function useless unless you enter -somehow- their database ;-)
Do not lose time
"loggin in for free" (with a bogus or real identity): you still wont be allowed to see those
articles.
WEEKLY: there
is of course MORE disinformation than information, but the former
is -at least- VERY cleverly presented. These people are in touch with the real slavemasters: must read (and reverse) for all those interested in
"high level" propaganda (where some snippets of true information are
continuously presented below the dull iceberg of skilled Guinea-Pig conditioning). Besides Karl Marx himself was an avid reader of the Economist :-)
MONTHLY: *very* good, one of the best
sources of information of this planet, a little 'pauperistic' and
'whiny', but they see through reality
better than many others. This is one of
the BEST KNOWLEDGE SITES
of the whole web, without any doubt... hope you can read some
french... anyway there is
also a on-line version [in english]. Best unbiased professional information on the web.
DAILY good to average
"european style" information,
especially valuable for people interested in south American
affairs (seen from an european perspective :-) The archive is searchable from 1976! (Unfortunately dishes out only
short excerpts...
unless you enter -somehow- their database ;-)
Archives all the news published since November 1997.
There are two ways of accessing the archive:
Fast search: use the SEARCH box below;
Advanced search (or
click on the link in the search results page).
Since thousands of stories are being added every week, you will probably need to
use more than one search word: The more words you enter, the better your results.
You can enter keywords, but you will get better results by entering longer
free text - eg The night of the first Nato bombings of Serbia.
Default is the most relevant results first, but you can chose
search by date on the results page.
You can use double quotes and the Boolean search terms AND,
OR, NEAR and NOT,
which must
be in uppercase. For example search AND web NEAR engine
Use * as a wildcard. Alger* will find stories about Algeria, Algerians etc.
Querystring example:
http://newssearch.bbc.co.uk/cgi-bin/search/results.pl?scope=newsukfs&tab=news&q=angola Note that if you add,
for instance, ?start=20 to the query string, you go back in time accordingly (to page 20 of the results).
WEEKLY: Average/good snippets of information (in German):
"Hier finden Sie alle Beiträge, die von 1996 bis heute über das Internet veröffentlicht wurden. Es handelt sich nicht um ein
vollständiges Verzeichnis aller gedruckten Artikel unseres Blattes."
ONLY those articles that have been published on the web. Yet those are complete. 52 numbers for every year. Search
function often broken.
Archive Index
DAILY: Poor, provincial, boring, just vaguely liberal italian newspaper.
Almost useless for "real world" information
purposes, still relatively useful for italian matters.
"Inserire le parole separate da spazi. Verranno trovati i documenti che contengono
tutte le parole." Seems to search only a small set of 70000 documents, though.
You may alternatively search the "Corriere della sera" (most important italian daily), its
archives go back to 1992(!) but will allow you to read
for free only all articles of the last two weeks or only
those articles that are SHORTER THAN 1000 characters for
the whole 1992-today period. http://archivio.corriere.it/archivio/form.jsp
WEBBASED DAILY: Best arab coverage of world affairs in english
"The alternative to CNN for Iraqi and Middle eastern affairs"
Cookies' infested. Go here and choose advanced search, then fill in the various fields before
launching the archive search:

Cui bono?
Apart from the obvious use for everyday's news checking purposes & in order to delve
into the pseudo-information we receieve (in order to
evaluate thoroughly what's going on),
the various forms above can
come quite handy for many RESEARCH purposes.
Note that there are, of course, MANY MORE historical "news" archives all around the web. To underline but one specific example:
A young (german speaking) student could, using the following
site: http://anno.onb.ac.at/cgi-content/anno,
immediately begin to prepare an in depth research on the austrian (and middle european)
history between 1800 and 1938. And
this is just ONE example of the incredible richness of the web! Similar archives and uncounted
databases exist
for all countries,
all time frames, all languages for free. And you'll find them every time you need them... provided you know how to search!
Lately, many of our more industrious and investigative
readers have taken it upon themselves to supply our
searchlores offices with documents
which purport to complete and/or
further illuminate this section. We send our thanks to the readers who provided
hints and material; like-minded souls are encouraged to send further discoveries and suggestions to
the addresses of the responsibles of this site, that you'll find listed elsewhere.
