Folio’s News & Media section is an edited shortlist of 28 news & media websites worth your attention. Instead of an algorithmic ranking, every entry here was read and placed by a person, so the list stays anchored to real, live sites — from familiar names like 1966films.com to smaller specialists such as a-drones.com.

The listings cover the breadth of the category, not just the biggest brands. Alongside the obvious choices you will find smaller, specialised news & media sites that rarely reach the first page of a search but are often exactly what you were after.

Not every news & media site suits every visitor. Scan the descriptions for the details you care about — location, focus, pricing signals or language — and lean toward sites that are upfront about them. The hand-written summaries are there to make that comparison quick.

If you run a news & media website that belongs here, you can list it free in under a minute. Every legitimate submission makes the News & Media section more complete for the next reader.
