Wonderful news! And an appropriate tribute to those who worked so hard not only to put NewsTrust on the map, but to make it the success it has become! Two questions: who could those “grain of salt” reviewers be? And when NewsTrust adds its new feature to the reviews, how is a naïve country boy living in the wilds of the Colorado mountains ever going to be able to determine which is “left wing” or “right wing”? That kind of judgment is for sophisticated West-coast, East-coast intellectual types.

Thoughtful report on NewsTrust.net, from an authoritative source of business news. The author presents accurate information, backed by factual evidence, culled from multiple sources. Additional research about popularity-based news aggregators like Digg or Reddit helps give the big picture about NewsTrust's unique contribution in the social news space. (Disclosure: I am interviewed in this article, as NewsTrust's executive director)

Fair set of sources and viewpoints, but lacking the MacArthur Foundation viewpoint. Nice overview.

This piece gives a decent summary of background information about NewsTrust, and provides quotes of what some people (including the founder himself) said about it. The piece would be more informative and interesting if the author said more about what NewsTrust actually is.
