Here’s a distribution of top news web sites from comScore for March 2005:

Looks like a good case for Online PR to me. There’s a huge opportunity within News Search. In my experience most public relations firms are not incorporating Internet News Search into their clients PR and media relations programs. Of course I am biased, since my public relations firm does provide clients with online and offline PR and media relations services. However, time and time again when we meet with our clients’ interactive shops, ad agencies or PR firms, they provide a blank look when we explain News Search as part of a marketing and brand building strategy. When we provide case studies and data the tune changes.

What I’m curious about is how many mobile devices are used for reading news and what the trends are there.
