1）The Los Angeles Times《洛杉矶时报》
国家安全委员会成员
网址www.latimes
《洛杉矶时报》是美国西部最大的对开日报，其影响与地位仅次于《纽约时报》和《华盛顿邮报》，被称为美国的第三大报。它于1881年12月4日在洛杉矶创刊。该报主要刊发新闻时事报道，网站配合报刊，提供丰富的全球各类资讯。 2）The New Y ork Times《纽约时报》
网址imes
《纽约时报》是美国影响最大的报纸，在美国最负盛名，有“挡案记录报”的美称。这是因为它能比较充分和详尽地报道国内国际大事，消息比较灵通，社会新闻比较严肃。网站配合报刊，栏目全面。网站上设有法新社和英国路透社的新闻专栏，以及“ON THIS DA Y”栏目提供“历史上的今天”相关资料和该天生日的名人资料。
3）Washington Post《华盛顿邮报》
网址www.washingtonpost
在美国首都出版的《华盛顿邮报》，也是美国的一家很有影响的对开日报，其声望仅次于《纽约时报》，被称为美国第二大报。由于它地处首都，一些记者、编辑与政界很熟，对联邦政府和国会活动的报道、评论、分析较多，而且时有“内幕”新闻透露，一直为读者所重视，号称是美国政界人士必读的报纸，也是了解和研究美国内政外交的重要报刊之一。该报于1877年12月6日创刊，属于格雷厄姆（Graham）家族为代表的华盛顿邮报公司，分平日版和星期日版。网站配合报刊。该报曾在2005年夏天中国网络盛行芙蓉之时，大幅刊登了相关的报导，由此可见其对世界各地热点的广泛关注。
注：《纽约时报》和《华盛顿邮报》一道被认为是美国最有公信力的媒体，它们的历史本身就是美国的新闻发展史。两报的社论事实上可以基本代表美国左右两派的观点。
4）The Wall Street Journal《华尔街日报》
网址www.wsj
《华尔街日报》是美国发行量经常位居第一的对开日报，也是美国金
融界最具权威的专业报纸。它于1889年7月8日由美国主要财政金融新闻出版企业集团道·琼斯公司在纽约市华尔街附近的科兰特街创办，读者对象主要为大资产阶级和高薪经营管理人员。该报每日发布的综合反映美国股票价格升降趋势的道-琼斯平均指数（Dow-Jones Average），是西方经济界衡量美国政治与经济形势的重要依据。作为配合报刊的网站，它具有与该报一样的风格，即基本上没有图片，也不用彩，图表必有。

网址dailynews
《纽约每日新闻》（Daily News, New Y ork）是美国最大的大众化报纸，发行量居美国日报前列。它创办于1919年，当年热衷于黄新闻，在20年代的美国刮起了一场"小报旋风"。1929年经济危机以后遭到舆论抵制，这方面有所收敛，但目前仍然倾力于报道地方新闻、社会新闻和种种软新闻。即使是重大国际新闻，也要从"人情味"上做文章。网站配合报刊，免费阅览，还可以免费搜索1997年至今印刷报纸刊载的全部材料。
