Policy Center's Study Shows Flaws in News Media's Use of RSS

From the Center for Media and the Public Agenda at University of Maryland, College Park:

  • International News and Problems with the News Media’s RSS Feeds: “This study was constructed to determine which news outlets use RSS well—which outlets give users the range of information that most closely approximates what can be found on the outlets’ websites…This study looked at 19 of the top global news online sites to see which ones gave the users of their RSS feeds the same number of stories, the same range of news sources, in as timely a fashion as could be gotten if those users went to the individual website.”
