About News Directory 3

News Directory 3 is a US-focused news source directory paired with curated current-news briefs.

We catalog newspaper publishers, news services, newsstands, and classified-ads publishers across all 50 states and the District of Columbia, and publish source-backed news briefs that link back to the original publisher whenever a story is reported by a directory entry.

What we do

  • Maintain a public directory of US news outlets with verifiable contact and coverage data.
  • Publish concise current-news briefs that always cite the strongest original source.
  • Connect each story to the publishers that cover the same beat and the same locality.

Editorial model

Briefs are written with automated assistance against verified primary sources. A pre-publish quality gate rejects placeholder pages, sub-600-character drafts, and unsourced numeric claims before they reach the index.
