Breaking News E-mail Alerts

I am sharing and adding to the sidebar another favorite e-mail subscription of mine (actually two).

Have you signed up for any breaking news alerts yet? The big news stories come right to my inbox immediately as they are happening. For instance, yesterday when the small airplane of the baseball player hit the building, I received an e-mail immediately with a one sentence line alerting me. For more information, just go to the websites. I actually prefer to watch the news stories on Yahoo’s homepage.

I receive one e-mail at work and a different one at home.

I like CBS news simply because my city’s television station is CBS, but you can probably find the alerts for any of the stations.
Go to http://www.cbsnews.com/ and scroll all the way down to the bottom. You will see “E-Mail Sign up.” Next to that, click on “Breaking News”


You can do the same thing at http://www.cnn.com/.
Scroll to the bottom of the page where you see “Services” and click on “E-mail.”

Of course, both of these sites have RSS you can sign up for too.


Do you receive a breaking news e-mail alert? Which one do you prefer?
