Cnn.com is the only news site I have ever kept tabs on. My daily scanning of it started last year as a result of the intro to the critic class. My favorite part of the site is the top ten news stories of the day. it shows you whats the most popular and what the ten biggest stories that cnn has running that day.
Over all the site is very easy to navigate and has a lot of useful features and tips for journalists or any news minded people.

Photo Assignment
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRCjcTzouG8
This slide show has a few cool effects but the editing, selection and flow is lacking. Its a good example of a do it yourself job probably off some 15 year olds desktop.

This one has fitting music, good transition and what I can only assume would be great quality images if they were not on you tube.

This photo gallery has good images, to me their awesome, exactly the types that I like the most. Good quality although posted at a small size, the gallery should be a full screen with the ability to go from image to image without having to go to a different scree,

For my Podcast I looked at the Onion News (The one we watched in class) and one called Auto-tune The News. They are both free and updated at least once a week.
The Onion is totally fake, but professionally presented news. The stories are bogus but very very entertaining. They cover material that ranges from totally made up to spoofed reality.
Auto-Tune The News is actually clips from real new broadcasts auto-tuned and mashed up to sound similar to a song. I think its hilarious and apparently my opinion is shared, its one of the top Podcasts on Itunes.
