Today, one can find news from virtually any country on the Internet, and many countries publish English-language editions of their major papers as well. Given the vast number of possible sources, there's little sense in trying to provide a comprehensive list of newspapers here. Instead, on this page, I provide links to a select number of major sources organized by region (the list below is reproduced primarily from the sfgate.com website).

For students who need a little help wading through the sheer vastness of world news, one very good place to start is with the World Views column written by Edward Gomez every Tuesday for sfgate.com (click here for archive of past columns).
