I’m Feed Up with Feedless News Sites

I am “feed up” with news sites that don’t offer quality RSS feeds.

Two sites that I like a lot and read regularly are AdWeek and MediaPost. Neither offers decent RSS feeds, so I built my own off Google News. Feel free to use them. Adweek has a few feeds, but they stink.

What other feeds should we build that don’t exist? Create the feeds and then file them under the “” Technorati tag. A simple way to do this is to use the Google News advanced search feature for “+the” in the source of your choice. Topix’s advanced search page is also great, especially for for building RSS feeds for local news sources.
