Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Newspapers from Wilsmith's service
The following is a list of papers that Wil Smith supplies. His
e-mail
address is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
The following newspapers and periodicals are distributed free of
charge
to all blind and visually impaired readers:
Daily:
The New York Times (runs 250 to 350k usually)
The Washington Post (same size to slightly larger)
Weekly:
Mondays: the New Yorker running 225 to 375k.
Tuesdays: Science Times and Health News (105 to 125k)
Thursdays: Tech Update from the N Y Times and W Post
Fridays: Slate, the Online magazine of News and Ideas (runs 350
to 425k)
Saturdays' S News and World Report (runs 160 to 200k usually)
Sunday magazines ( N Y Times and W Post papers; runs 275 to
320k)
Sundays: Book World and N Y Times Book Reviews (runs 275 to 375k)
All titles are available either as text in the body of an email
message
or as plain text attachments.
Why subscribe to these texts when it's likely you won't have time
to
read them all the way through? For the same reasons that sighted
people
subscribe to print newspapers and magazines with dozens of pages
they'll
never read, but just skim over. You get to choose to read only
those
news stories and articles that interest you. All items begin
with this
search term:
"_next article"
and you can simply read the headline and first few sentences of
each
item to see if you wish to jump forward to the next article or
settle
back and get the full story. So while a compilation can have
dozens of
articles you might choose to briefly note the headlines and
opening
paragraph of most items and read fully that 10 or 12 items of
special
interest to you.
The best way to find out about these titles is to try a sample
run of an
issue or two, then cancel if you wish.
Happy reading,
