The Whole World is Watching

Most of us in the United States view only our local papers or perhaps the evening news to get a sense of what's happening in our country. At Watching America you can find out how the rest of the world sees us. View articles from other countries about American news. Articles are usually available in at least two formats, their native language and an English-edited version. There are also occasional machine-translated versions of the articles.

The site provides a collection of article titles and pull quotes from recent publications. Occasionally there are political cartoons. The only way to search unfortunately seems to be with a drill down system that allows you to visit the various national newspapers. Some of the newspaper sites may have search utilities at their sites. The country newspaper list is located at the bottom of the home page. You have to scroll to get there.
