    Totally inadequate I'm afraid. For France they do not even have Le Monde. For all of Africa they have only one paper, a Tunesian one. Where is the excellent South African Mail & Guardian?

    EDIT
    Oops, they have just added Le Monde. On to Libération. We Dutchmen have no newspapers as you can see. We threw them out years ago. Damn nuisance.

    Quite interesting actually - unfortunately it lacks comprehensiveness (no suprise - probably due to copyright issues).

    The selection for Frankfurt was a bit strange though

    I was wondering about what papers they have also. From their FAQ

    How do you decide which newspapers to feature each day?
    All of the front pages we receive each morning are included in that day's online exhibit. If you don't see a particular newspaper that you have seen in the exhibit previously, the newspaper simply may not have submitted that morning's front page, or there may have been a technical problem with the electronic transmission. We rely on staff at each participating newspaper to send us their front page every morning, and if we do not receive a front page from a regular contributor, we contact them immediately to resolve the problem.
