wtf is news-list?

News-list is a curated directory of news sources across technology, geopolitics, economics, and politics. It's essentially a reading list: the author compiled the outlets they personally follow to stay informed about world events and industry trends, and organized them in one place so others can use the same set of sources. The repository is a single document listing around 70+ news organizations. For each one, it provides the main website link, a newsletter signup link, and the outlet's Twitter account. The sources range from major publications like The New York Times, The Economist, and Bloomberg to more specialized outlets covering cybersecurity (The Hacker News, ThreatPost), Asian markets (Nikkei, South China Morning Post), defense and foreign policy (Foreign Affairs, Defense News), and think-tank research (Brookings, Atlantic Council). The list has a strong international flavor, with sources covering the US, Europe, China, Japan, Southeast Asia, and Australia. This would be useful for founders, analysts, journalists, or anyone who wants a broad, curated set of news sources to monitor, especially people who need to track developments across multiple regions and topics rather than relying on a single outlet. If you're building a daily reading habit and want a pre-vetted list of newsletters to subscribe to, this gives you a starting point without having to hunt down each signup page individually. The author notes that the list is no longer maintained. They acknowledge that valuable sources like blogs, independent newsletters, and Twitter accounts aren't included, and that their own reading habits have shifted over time. So it's a snapshot of one person's media diet from a few years ago rather than a living, updated resource. The links themselves may still be current, but the selection reflects the author's past preferences rather than ongoing curation.
