    I really like the CNN breaking news one as it’s fast and not overwhelming. There are some good local ones in every market (in Orlando we have @orlandosentinel and @wesh for example) and sometimes good aggregators like @orlandonews.

  5. Maybe not an official TV, radio or newspaper outlet (but then again, neither is the Drudge Report) – I’ve been pretty happy with @BreakingNewsOn.
