Eleanor,

If this is what you mean:  All of the sites mentioned by Tony are free. 
OK, there are services and extras there you must pay for if you want 
them, but the main sites are free.  (of those, Francis already has the 
Examiner - text-only.)  the irish Times became available free again from 
June of last year.  (They use www.ireland.com >.)  It'd be good if its 
text-only version could be added.  We're getting spoiled for choice now!

Guess you have to give a money subscription.

Hi Francis,

Possibly a last on the list re this thread from me!

Love the radio thought, but would it be an idea say as well as including
text-based newspapers would you consider newspapers that are accessible 
to
screen reader users but not necessarily totally text-based?

I know people who say for example get the Irish Times, The Irish 
Examiner
and The Indo online!

There is also a great interest (believe it or not) in local newspapers
still, many of which are also online.

I'm sure,  including your considerable knowledge in technology,  there 
are
also a number of visually-impaired  computer users who could assist you 
in
determining whether a newspaper is accessible or not for them.

Best of luck!

Tony
