So they just screwed up [msnbc.com](http://msnbc.com) by adding way too many graphics, photos, and mouse over popup menus. I used to like it as a way to get sports, financial info, and headlines. What should I use now? I use Drudge Report to find breaking news, but the right-wing bias bugs me. Plus, it doesn’t have sports scores. ---

I tend to stick to [nytimes.com](http://nytimes.com) and [bbc.co.uk](http://bbc.co.uk) for my news these days. The articles are more in-depth, there’s less celebrity bullshit to sort through, and the headlines bear some resemblance to the content of the stories. ---

[http://www.washingtonpost.com/](http://www.washingtonpost.com/) [/QUOTE] I got a kick seeing that 8 of the links were greyed out, for me. I don’t like the new msnbc design either. My local paper’s site looks exactly like it and they just implemented too. Is it some sort of template?
