NFB-NEWSLINE is an audio information service for the blind which provides
access to print publications. We have 307 newspapers, including the
Associated Press newswire and the United Press International newswire; 38
magazines such as the Economist and AARP Magazine; ten international

Blindness Specific publications such as the Braille Monitor and the Matilda
Ziegler Magazine.
Two of the four new publications are part of a new category labeled Breaking
News Online. These are the Huffington Post, a very well-known online site,
and CNN, which is part of Turner Broadcasting Systems cable news network. To
