Top National Newspapers can be downloaded to your Kindle

Digital book readers now offer newspapers in their list of titles
The makers of the digital book readers such as the Amazon Kindle know they have a long, uphill fight to display the paper copies of the billions of books in print. To even fantasize about such a goal would be wholly foolish and these digital book reader folks know that. They have to find a way to make their electronic reading devices more desirable by the general public so that so many people have the devices that the demand for the wireless book continues to drive innovations and the supply of materials.
An ingenious attempt to do just this is the angle the digital reading device makers have taken in dealing with the daily newspaper. Anyone who receives this daily collection of news has had to struggle with the decision about what to do with your old copies. In this day of green movements there is an abundance of opportunities to be socially and environmentally responsible in your disposal of the newspaper, but that still requires the conscious decision and effort to do so. Quite simply, many people would rather just toss their paper in the trash and move on with their life.
Now you can have your newspaper digitally delivered to your Kindle electronic book reader, where you can read at your convenience.
They are more convenient to read
Are there those of you who just enjoy the noxious smell of newsprint in the morning? If so this bit of information I intend to share may be of no interest. I use to deliver newspapers and the ink was always fresh, which could give you a headache really quick.
But really, how many of us have struggled to read a newspaper outside on a picnic table or a park bench. Even the slightest breeze will play havoc with your collection of lightweight newsprint.
Convenient delivery no matter where you live
Suppose you are a native New Yorker who moved to Florida or amyb out to the West Coast, and want to read your beloved New York Times. You can pay to have the paper delivered, or try your luck at the newsstand, but with this option your paper is auto delivered to the digital book readers every day. How much more convenient could that be?
Kindle's top eight offerings
- The New York Times
- The Wall Street Journal
- The USA Today
- The Washington Post
- The Onion
- The International Herald Tribune
- The Los Angles Times
- Chicago Tribune
The New York Times
This is easily the biggest newspaper I have ever seen at the newsstand. I expect to cove the largest city in the United States it is necessary to have so much newspaper delivered to your subscribers each day. Imagine what an environmental impact having this converted from a physical copy to an electronic one would make in New York City.
The folks of the Big Apple do not have the luxury of space, so this conversion may explain part of the reason why the New York times is listed as the number one sold digital download. New Yorkers can utilize their digital book readers everyday on the subway, ferry, train or while waiting for whatever mode of transportation they choose.
The Wall Street Journal
Another large newspaper, the Wall Street Journal reigns as the kindg of the daily financial news world. Each issue has every word you need to know about the state of financial matters that will positively or negatively affect your world each day. The charts, graphs and opinions are often quoted on news programs on radio and television as we all hold the Wall Street Journal in such high regard.
I am sure there are legions of traders who would rather try to keep up with an e-book reader while moving around the trading floor than try to keep their paper copy of the Wall Street Journal in order.
The USA Today
Billed as the national newspaper, the USA today tries to cover all of the fifty states, with sections devoted to news, money, sports and life style. This paper has found a good niche of faithful readers who generally pick up a copy in storefront newspaper boxes each day. the digital downlaod will actually make getting the paper more convenient.
The Washington Post
Everything in the capitol of the United Staes of America will break along lines of the parties in some way. There is always a definition of liberal or conservative to everything in Washington D.C. and that goes for the two newspapers as well.
The Washington Times is considered a more conservative offering, with The Washington Post thought of by many as liberal. It may be best if you read both to get a comprehensive take on what really is going on at the center of the United Staes government.
The Onion
This paper is a satirical turn on the traditional, stuffy newspaper style. The stories included are many times parodies of serious fare, with a much lighter and rarely real news stories. The paper has gained quite a following due to its nose-thumbing style and promise to deliver biting humor at the expense of those in power.
The International Herald Tribune
This newspaper is an international collection of news printed in English. The Herald tribune benefits from the reporting resources of the New York Times as well as its own staff to present a comprehensive look at events affecting the whole planet. The newspaper is read around the world and cherished for its unique viewpoints.
The Los Angeles Times
The daily newspaper of the second largest US city is know for its award winnning journalists and editorial staff. Many stories that broke through the Los Angeles Times are well known to history buffs around the USA as well as the globe. With hollywood providing so much fodder, the Times never struggles to keep its readers informed.
Chicago Tribune
A newspaper for those between the left and right coasts is the Chicago Tribune. Not stuck with only news about things in the northeast or those out west, the Chicago Tribune is also known for its stellar news gathering staff. The reporters of the Tribune can claim their own rooms of awards as their stories keep the Midwest up to date on the nation and the world.
Financial Times
Another offering that pools the financial news all investors seek such as stock market quotes, stock prices and the overall stock report that will drive the economines of the world as well as indexes such as the Dow Jones, FTSE 100 and Canadian stock market among others is the Financial Times. This London based newspaper is the United Kingdom's falgship stock market report periodical, with only one main rival, the Wall Street Journal.
The Financial Times has been published in London for 122 years. IT seeks to give broader coverage to the stock market based in London, which is known as the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 Index. The markts get their acronym from the formal name, which is tthe Financial Times Stock Exchange.
A uinique attribute for the Financial Times newspaper is it salmon color. This was something chosen to differntiate ti from a competing financial newspaper, but lasts today even though that rival has since been absorbed into the Financial Times. Today the Financial Times is the primary source of the stock report investors in the United Kingdom and much of the European Union consult for stocks and shares prices.
