Top Web Sites for March Madness News
For large news outlets …
SI.com
has an impressive stable of writers, including Seth Davis, who you’ll be seeing a lot of as CBS’ studio analyst. The “Truths&Rumors” section links to the day’s breaking news stories from newspapers and rival Web sites. Registering with the site allows you to customize the Truths&Rumors reports you get by team or player.
ESPN.com
features news and commentary from its television analysts, including Jay Bilas, Doug Gottlieb and Andy Katz. Quite a bit of the content, however, requires an ESPN Insider subscription ($39.95 a year). Also check out “ESPNU College Basketball,” a thrice-weekly podcast hosted by Doug Gottlieb and Andy Katz.
