Traveling to a distant land, and wondering where you’ll get
the news in your new spot? Or hear of a breaking story across the world
and want to get the local take?
Newspaper Map
is a great place to start. It’s a searchable, zoomable,
color-coordinated map of about 10,000 newspapers across the
globe—available online and as a
mobile app.
A simple Google News search will also divide news outlets
geographically, of course, but Newspaper Map lays them all out visually,
and also incorporates Google’s translation tool with a simple button.
The “Historical!” button is also incredibly useful; click it and
you’ll see links to archives of papers that are defunct, from New York’s
The Sun to Tanzania’s
Deutsch Ostafrikanische Zeitung, which published (in German) from 1899 to 1916. Just in case you need that.
